Donor spotlight: Dunn Brothers Coffee

We're raising our mugs to a fantastic friend and donor, Dunn Brothers Coffee. In 2014, Dunn Brothers teamed up with us as part of their holiday seasonal promotion. Together, we created the Changemaker Chocolate Bar, made from rich, dark-roasted beans. The sales proceeds resulted in $10,000 to help fund our work supporting displaced people around the world.

Dunn Brothers Coffee has continued to be a great support throughout the years. They took center stage as the presenting sponsor of the Maker’s Collection in 2015 at Alight’s Changemakers Ball. They returned the following year to present their coffee-flavored beer in collaboration with Summit Beer.

Dunn Brothers Coffee has a strong commitment to giving back to displaced people of coffee-growing regions. By offering innovative, human-centered products, the coffee company continues to honor the farmers, protect the environment and empower communities. We are grateful for their willingness to co-create, Do the doable and spark joy.

In Africa, countries like Burundi, Zambia, and Kenya grow a lot of coffee – about 12% of all coffee in the world! Countries where Alight works like Ethiopia and Uganda make most of that together, around 62%. The coffee industry helps people provide for their families, although not many people in Africa drink coffee themselves, except in Ethiopia.

Dunn Brothers, you’ve blended the best of taste and kindness, and we’re beyond thankful for every drop of support you’ve shared with Alight. Here’s to many more years of partnership, shared purpose, and making the world a brighter place, one coffee bean at a time!
