Access Riviera Creates #Coffee4Charity: Swapping Coffee Beans for Classroom Supplies

Monaco, France, December 30, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Last month, Rebecca Whitlocke, the founder of Access Riviera, had the pleasure of meeting Chances for Children's President Gabrielle Crump, and photographer Justin Gage who had recently visited Uganda to check progress on the Chances for Children orphanage.

The orphanage is home for 58 former street children who have been rescued from the streets in Uganda and given a fresh start in life. Regular fundraising events aim to improve the day-to-day running of the orphanage and provide essential supplies for the children such as clothing, school equipment and medication.

Gabrielle and a group of volunteers provide organisational support, fundraising and necessary supplies, and they are also planning to start looking for land to build the Chances for Children school campus, which is one of several projects for 2016.

#Coffee4Charity: Why donate your coffee money to charity?

#Coffee4Charity is an initiative that will run from 01 January 2016 to 31 January 2016 with the aim to raise money for the Chances for Children orphanage in Uganda.

Giving up your coffee for a day, a week or the entire month of January is a novel way to contribute funds towards the people that need it most – the children at the orphanage.

Whether you choose to forgo your cup of morning decaf or your regular Starbucks, your coffee money will support a project of hope and could feed a child, contribute to sports equipment or buy school supplies.

You can gain moral support from fellow coffee addicts and share your challenge by using the dedicated event hashtag #Coffee4Charity on social media.
