Summer with CESMACH

For more, check out her blog entry on the Café Imports Grinder.

Here are a few highlights:

… Not once during my entire trip did I ever feel lonely or bored but rather overflowing with the joy I found in the relationships I established in each area of my Chiapan life, the work I was doing in both cervical cancer prevention and coffee, and from the sheer fact that I was living in a mountainous paradise. …

… Spending a period of time working and living at origin has enriched the way I view working both in coffee and women’s health. It has added dimensions and purpose to all aspects of the work that Café Imports, Grounds for Health, and I do each day. …

Mexico, once again, swept me off my feet. I re-fell in love with working in and around coffee. Daily exercising my passion for empowering women through both words and actions piqued my senses, my heart, and my being. Blending Mexico, coffee, and women’s empowerment: idyllic. Thank you Café Imports, thank you Grounds for Health, and thank you CESMACH for including me in your pursuit of saving lives and ever-increasing the quality and sustainability of coffee.

    Outstanding video , very genuine but more important is the work that Amanda did. Women need to be recognozed as special with self esteem and confidence. I applaud these efforts and am thankful for these volunteers.
