Together for Colombia

For every dollar donated, Forest adds another dollar.

Pereira · Quimbaya · Montenegro

The earthquake hit our communities. We will rebuild them together.

On August 10, 2026, a magnitude 7.4 earthquake with its epicenter in San José del Palmar, Chocó, struck western and central Colombia. The Eje Cafetero is inside the affected area, and so are the producing families Forest works with.

This is not a cause Forest picked. It is the region Forest buys from.

The cap is the ceiling on Forest's own contribution, not on the campaign. Donations that arrive after it is reached still go to the families in full — they just stop being doubled. We state the cap because a match with no declared limit is an open-ended obligation, and an open-ended obligation is not a serious promise.

Amounts No limit per donor

Five amounts. Give as many times as you like.

Each button opens a QuickBooks payment page in a new tab. Card or bank transfer. There is no limit on how many times one person can give.

Where it goes Split on gross

Split equally. Both halves are the point.

Every donation is split equally between farmer recovery and humanitarian relief in Pereira (Risaralda), Quimbaya and Montenegro (Quindío).

On-the-ground executing partner for this half: to be confirmed.

The split is calculated on the gross amount: the full USD 20, 40, 60, 80 or 100 you give, before payment processing fees are deducted. Forest absorbs those fees. The dollar Forest matches is split down the same line.

Transparency Read before you give

What you can hold us to.

Reporting

Every week we post the running account on Forest Coffee's social channels: what came in, what Forest added through the match, and what was bought or delivered with it. Weekly, for as long as the campaign is open and until the funds are spent.

Taxes

Donations are received by Forest Coffee LLC, a trading company — not a registered charity. That means your contribution is not tax-deductible. We are saying it here rather than in fine print, because the alternative is you finding out at filing season.
