The Foundation

Building Peace Through Sustainable Commerce

The Brewchange Foundation partners with private and public entities to help to transform conflict-affected regions within the areas of sustainable agriculture, education and economic development.

The Brewchange Story

The Brewchange Foundation, part of the Brewchange Group based in London, combines ethical business practices with a strong social mission rooted in Colombia. Through high-quality, accessible Colombian coffees, a portion of profits supports projects benefiting vulnerable children and young people in Latin America and Africa.

The EDGE coffee range reflects a commitment to fairness, social inclusion, and environmental responsibility. By supporting education-focused initiatives, Brewchange seeks to build confidence, expand opportunity, and create positive, lasting impact through coffee with purpose.

Strengthening Communities

Your donation funds initiatives that work from the inside out – connecting young people to mentors, and helping conflict-affected communities develop the social cohesion they need to thrive.

Building Economies

our donation builds financial resilience from the ground up – turning agricultural skills into sustainable livelihoods, and giving families real economic alternatives to the illicit economy.

Creating Opportunities

Your donation opens doors that conflict closes – partnering with schools, colleges, and local organisations to give children and young people the skills and pathways they deserve.

Other Ways to Support

Buy Coffee

Every bag of coffee you purchase creates the same impact as a donation – it directly supports peace-building efforts. Shop our premium Colombian coffee to support peace-building and long-term community initiatives with every sip.

Partnership

Partner with us to create large-scale impact. We work with companies and governments to support existing programs, design and build social and environmental projects from scratch, and facilitate employee-engagement intiatives.

The EPCE Foundation

Educating within a Post-Conflict Environment

The EPCE Foundation works directly with young people in
northern Cauca and Valle del Cauca, Colombia’s most conflict-affected regions. Through innovative agricultural programs,
technical education, and market development, they’re creating
viable alternatives to the illicit economy.

By partnering with universities, technical colleges, and private companies, EPCE develops products for urban markets while transferring technology and skills to isolated communities. This creates sustainable income streams that compete with illegal activities.
