Toybox...
... is a UK charity working with street children in Latin America, Africa and Asia. Toybox started its work in Guatemala City in 1992, we are still there today, working with children who have been plunged into the chaos of living or working on the streets. We believe no child should have to live on the streets and strive for a world in which every child can access their basic human rights and live a happy, fulfilled life. Our vision is of a just world, with no street children. www.toybox.org.uk

We are extending our FAIRTRADE Coffee Options
Brazil Smooth (Fairtrade)
100% Arabica Single Origin from Brazil
This is a coffee that will suit most. The beans are a high quality and possess an intense sweetness in the form of caramel and chocolate notes, big bodies, and a relatively low acidity. The coffee beans are hand picked and dry processed. This involves removing the beans from the sweet cherries once dried. This allows the sweetness of the fruit to carry through to the final espresso.
Perfect for Espressos and milky drinks such as cappuccinos, flat whites, and lattes.
Italia Signature Blend (Fairtrade)
This is a blend of some amazing Fairtrade coffee beans. These include Ethiopia Mocha, Indian Robusta AB, Brazil, and some Centrals. The blend gives a very rounded flavour that has strength and body to cut through milky drinks

Partnering with Toybox in their outreach program for the street children of Guatemala
"Across our Latin American partners, there have been anecdotal reports of increases in levels of insecurity for partner staff and for project participants in all three countries. While multiple factors are at play, it is clear that the pandemic has led to huge increases in economic instability and increased numbers of children on the streets, as well as increased levels of substance abuse.

Why Our Coffee is The Best?
Sourcing the Pick of the Crop
Established relationships with producers and the coffee farming community means we can consistently source the best Arabica and Robusta beans from over 40 origins across the Coffee Growing Belt. At Kingdom Coffee we always demand the pick of the crop. We buy Grade 1 or “Strictly High Grown” – SHG coffee beans. By selecting only coffee beans from the highest elevations we can be sure that the bean has matured more slowly, grown to a larger size and with more density to create a consistently great taste profile.
There’s no denying that coffee grown at higher elevations produces the best flavour profiles, which is then sorted and graded by the farmers

Guatemala City itself is a place of contrasts. It has areas of beauty and opportunity but it’s also a highly dangerous place to live – especially for a child living and working on the street without official recognition. This means that street children can be used, neglected and abused by gangs and criminals, and are at significant risk of being trafficked.
As we are undoubtedly facing a global crisis unlike any the world has ever seen before. In the space of just a few short months, the coronavirus pandemic has spread to almost every country, bringing grief, anxiety and economic chaos. As the outbreak continues, it is easy to miss those who are out of sight. Street children are the hidden victims of this pandemic – which threatens their rights and exposes them to even greater risks. So many of the street children we work with are unable to earn any money, and without a safe place to isolate, they
