We are in the process of adopting a little boy who we have named Cullen, from Ethiopia. We are currently waiting for our case to be heard by the Ethiopian courts (a date that keeps getting pushed back) that will legally make him our son!
The process has been at the same time rewarding and difficult. We have been (and continue to be) stretched to our limits emotionally but have managed at the same time to fall in love with not just one little boy, but a country and cause. The culture and history of Ethiopia is both rich and sad. The result is that their are over 4 million orphans in this country alone.
In the midst of this increasingly long journey, we have come across a unique, philanthropic opportunity that is close to our own hearts. Just Love Coffee is a way to help orphans and their forever families (like us!). By purchasing Just Love Coffee, a portion of the proceeds go directly to helping bring OUR son home from Ethiopia.
They offer a number of blends as well as single origin coffees from around the world (and yes from Ethiopia). They also offer a montly club type service where you can pick the blends you are interested in and have them directly and automatically shipped to you every month (great Christmas present idea!!!!). I know many of you drink A LOT of coffee each month and this is one way that your morning (or all day) ritual can help us bring our son home!!So visit our site at www.justlovecoffee.com/adamsadoption to start your coffee service now!!
Here is a little more information about Just Love Coffee:
All of their coffees are 100% fair trade which means that farmers who labor to bring us the finest hand picked beans are being paid a guaranteed minimum, sustainable wage. And, Just Love Coffee is not just reselling a product. They roast their coffees to order so that you are receiving the freshest coffee possible every time. Their goal as roasters at Just Love Coffees is for you to experience the unique qualities of the coffee, not the qualities of the roast.
Please help Jeff and Brooke out if you can, and get some good coffee at the same time.
