Coffee Kids

Travel Pioneers vision is to inspire travelers and truly make a difference in their lives. The Costa Rica-based travel bespoke travel company aims to contribute through experience and by working hand in hand with local communities in Latin America through organization like Coffee Kids.

Dedicated solely to improving coffee farmers’ quality of life, partners with farmers and their families to foster the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit needed to protect the future of coffee farming.

Founded in 1988, Coffee Kids was the first nonprofit within the budding specialty coffee industry dedicated solely to improving coffee farmers’ quality of life. In the 27 years since Coffee Kids’ inception, they have partnered with over 200,000 coffee-farming families in over 400 communities.

The organization has also cultivated a generous base of supporters from both within and outside of the coffee industry to empower farmers to improve their lives and livelihoods.

Being entrepreneurs themselves, Travel Pioneers founders and co-owners Katrin Kirchhoff and Catalina Herrera know how important it is to follow your dreams and passion regardless of the obstacles and what other people — even close friends and family members — may tell you.

They support Coffee Kids because they believe the program gives a younger generation the chance, hope and support needed to grow. Plus, they love coffee.
