Korrine Kreilkamp has played an active role in coordinating the collaboration between DOMA Coffee Roasting Company and Moscow’s Palouse Clearwater Environmental Institute to help stimulate broader support for the Village Bicycle Project. Last December, DOMA Coffee Roasting Company started donating 10% of their Moscow Co-op sales to Palouse Clearwater Environmental Institute’s Village Bicycle Project. The Village Bicycle Project works to address the critical lack of basic reliable, affordable transport for millions of Africans by transporting donated used bicycles, teaching bicycle maintenance, and by providing tools to for bicycle repairs in African Villages. In an effort to keep Co-op employees and customers informed on the progress that is being made from their coffee purchases, DOMA will be reporting to the Co-op the monetary amount of their donations to the Village Bicycle Project on a quarterly basis. It is estimated that the first quarterly payment will be in the $300-$400 range. This amount of money provides 17 bicycles for those participating in a one-day workshop facilitated by the Village Bicycle Project in Ghana Africa. You will have an opportunity to meet some of the DOMA Staff, as well as taste some of their coffees, at the upcoming Moscow Co-op Sample Fair scheduled for March 1 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. To find out more about The Village Bicycle Project and DOMA Coffee Roasting Company, take a look at the following links www.pcei.org/vbp/ - www.domacoffee.com.
