Introducing Qalandiya - A Symphony of Peruvian Excellence for a Noble Cause
Embark on a journey of exquisite flavors and unwavering support with Qalandiya, a single-origin coffee meticulously sourced from the Chanchamayo region of Peru. Crafted by Human Refuge Coffee, Qalandiya is more than a coffee; it's a tribute to resilience, named after the Qalandiya refugee camp in Palestine. With 100% of its profits dedicated to Human Refuge, a 501c3 organization providing developmentally appropriate education for special needs children and their families in refugee camps, each sip of Qalandiya contributes to a brighter future.
The story of the Qalandiya blend begins in 1965 when 100 small-scale coffee farmers joined hands to establish the La Florida Cooperative in the Chanchamayo region. Today, this cooperative has blossomed to over two thousand farmers, working collaboratively to enhance the quality of coffee produced. Through Fair Trade sales, La Florida has brought education, infrastructure, credit, and environmental consciousness to the rural areas, transforming lives and landscapes.
The La Florida Cooperative's commitment goes beyond coffee production; they have pioneered The Occupational Learning Center for Sustainable Agriculture. This center provides training in environmentally-friendly farming techniques, healthcare services, technical assistance in crop diversification, road maintenance, potable water systems, schools, and healthcare clinics. Additionally, they've purchased machinery and land to assist with coffee production, earning them the prestigious 6th place in Peru's National Quality Competition in 2005.
By choosing Qalandiya, you're not only treating your palate to a sublime coffee experience but also participating in a collective effort to make the world a better place. Indulge in the rich taste of compassion, and join us in supporting humanitarian initiatives benefiting Palestinian children and their families with every cup of Qalandiya from Human Refuge Coffee.

By choosing Qalandiya, you're not just savoring exceptional flavors of caramel, milk chocolate, and pear; you're brewing a more biodiverse and sustainable world. The Bird Friendly Certification, created by Smithsonian scientists, ensures the preservation of habitats often sacrificed for coffee cultivation.
