A student idea for coffee and schools

We love coffee. I want the families behind it to have a fairer chance.

I’m Hridhaan, and I’m 15. School has given me choices. It is hard to think that someone could grow the coffee we enjoy every day and still struggle to give their own children the same chance. I’m trying to find out whether the coffee our families already buy could mean a better deal for farmers and a clear contribution to a school.

Why I started

What we learn should shape what we do.

My parents and teachers have taught me to be curious and to care about people I may never meet. I don’t know yet if this idea will work. I want to ask honest questions, try it with others, and show clearly where the money goes.
