Average To Art has an espresso machine inside of our new studio at 905 Meridian St. N in Huntsville. Their beans come from Rwanda and the proceeds go back to the victims of genocide. Much to tell about the story... come in, get a cup of coffee, learn about the cause and DO GOOD & DRINK COFFEE! (We also have Chai Tea)
Until then, here's a little reading...
"In April 1994, Rwanda (a country half the size of the state of Maryland) experienced one of histories most atrocious genocides. In just 100 days, 1 million ethnic Tutsi and moderate Hutu sympathizers lost their lives to the hands of extremist Hutu militia."
" In the wake of civil war Rwanda made a commitment to national restoration. The government called upon the church to lead the country in reconciliation and asked the outside world to support the nation as it looks to eradicate poverty, disease and illiteracy. Land of a Thousand Hills is ready to help. Are you?"
