A year ago, Cordillera Coffee Company put up Coffee AID (Assistance for Indigenous Development), a project that would enjoin private individuals to take a more active role in helping uplift the livelihood of the native coffee growers by advance-buying coffee to give the farmers regular income.


Now an NGO and a year old, Coffee AID is assisting 60 families of indigenous farmers from the areas of Atok, Bobok, Bocod, and Belis, Benguet.

Aside from giving financial aid, Cordillera Coffee also extends continuous coffee training and development to ensure quality of the produce, and will eventually hold livelihood workshops for the farmers' families -- art workshops for the children and craft-making sessions for the women.
