Hundreds of coffee shops, restaurants, roasters and retailers take part every year by donating from every cup or bag of coffee sold, running events and competitions, and engaging their customers in this exciting and valuable campaign.
Why take part
Today, 703 million people around the world don’t have access to clean water. The majority live in isolated, rural areas – the same areas growing our coffee. UK Coffee Week raises funds for Project Waterfall, the charity that provides clean water, sanitation and education to coffee-growing communities across the world.

The villages of Mwogo and Juru have a large population of farmers who rely on the land for their livelihoods. The community currently walks hours every day to collect water from the closest lakes. This project will build a new distribution network, piping water from Lake Akagera through an existing treatment plant to new reservoirs and water pump stations in the villages of Mwogo and Juru.
