Education
There is a well-known saying that without knowledge, people perish. Guatemala is a country rich with opportunity. The natural wealth and immense beauty of the country are without equal. Yet Guatemala is a third-world country where people die every day of malnutrition, bad hygiene, lack of clean water, and no access to affordable health care. Why is that? Guatemala ranks as second worst in education, second only to Haiti.. Here at Inn Kapeu, we believe that the sustainable solution to a better tomorrow for our partners, their families, and Guatemala is through education. This is why we give to the Schools of Inn Ministries that have been established for over three decades to provide quality education and pay a fair trade value for all our products so that our partners can give their families a better tomorrow.
Sharing Knowledge
Here at Inn Kapeu we have the opportunity to work alongside world class leaders and missionaries. Together they provide a diverse worldview on how to make business more sustainable, ethical, and productive. Together, they work closely with our partners to share their knowledge and learn from our partners to help increase their business and quality of life.
Future Leaders
Through our partnerships with the schools and businesses, we strive to create a clean, safe, and fun work environment where we invite your interns to come and learn what it means to lead an ethical business that cares for people, gives back to its community, and keeps an eye to the future.
Inn Ministries
Inn Ministries has been working in Guatemala as a Church and School for more than 30 years. They were founded on the principle of creating a refuge on the Jericho road where all men and women, from all walks of life, could go and find healing, training, and purpose.

Lady’s Co-op
Our coffee blend ChipiChipi is sourced from a Farmers Coop that is made up of 180 orphans and widows. In the 1980’s the country was ravaged with civil war where many women and children lost their fathers to war. These lady’s recieve psychological help through their coop as well as farming tips and tricks. Every time you drink ChipiChipi you are making a difference in their lives.
