Donation Policy

Bean North Coffee Roasting Co. Ltd. is a business owned by Yukoners, employing Yukoners. We are a community minded business, recognize the need for community involvement, and do our best to give back to the community as much as possible.

Not only do we support our local Yukon community, we're also heavily involved in supporting the farmers that grow our coffee. We believe that the farmers who grow our coffee deserve a high quality of life and a healthy environment to live and work in. Following that belief, we have been building long term working relationships with producer groups and paying a fair price. That ensures higher quality coffee and allows farmers and their communities to achieve some of their dreams. Read about our donation of Big Red a beautiful small-batch coffee roaster, to the SOPPEXCCA Cooperative in Nicaragua in the fall of 2010 here.

Bean North is an active member of the Yukon community and has proudly supported many organizations and charitable events over the years. Below is a partial list of organizations and events that Bean North has happily supported over the years.
