“Honoring women’s work in coffee – Urugori  is a crown that Rwandan women are given after the birth of their first child. This coffee lot is solely produced and processed by women, who make up over 70% of Gasharu’s workforce. This batch is meant to highlight their integral role in our industry and community and provide them with an additional 10% of the profit. It has been proven that by putting more money in the hands of women, communities can eradicate malnutrition and illiteracy and ensure girls’ access to education.” - Umuko
