A Commitment to the Communities and Ecosystems Behind Our Coffee

At Original Source Collective, we believe that exceptional coffee can only exist when the communities who grow it and the ecosystems that sustain it are supported, respected, and protected. Giving back isn’t an added feature of our brand, it’s part of our foundation.

Supporting growers, strengthening communities, and protecting ecosystems are inseparable parts of our mission. Every purchase contributes to cultural preservation, environmental stewardship, and direct community aid.

Some treasures come from giving back.

$1 From Every Online Purchase Supports Community Care and Local Wellbeing

For every bag of coffee sold online, we contribute one dollar towards programs that directly benefit the communities connected to our origins. A significant portion of this support goes to Samana Smiles, a volunteer-run medical organization providing life-saving services to families who would otherwise go without care. Their work is grounded in transparency; every treatment is cost-listed, accessible, and delivered by volunteers committed to improving health outcomes in underserved regions.

Protecting Nature

$1 From Every Online OSC Coffee Club Purchase Supports Rainforest Conservation

Every OSC Coffee Club item sold online contributes one dollar to rainforest wildlife protection through our support of the Rainforest Awareness Rescue Education Center (RAREC). Their work encompasses wildlife rescue, rehabilitation, habitat preservation, anti-poaching efforts, and environmental education. Healthy rainforests make healthy coffee ecosystems. Protecting biodiversity safeguards the future of the farms, the wildlife, and the culture that surrounds every bean we roast.

Hand-Drawn Wildlife Artwork by Our In-House Designer

All animal illustrations featured on our merchandise are hand-drawn — no AI, no shortcuts. Each piece is created by our in-house designer and inspired by species native to the Peruvian and Dominican landscapes. These designs celebrate the biodiversity that sustains coffee agriculture and reflect our commitment to authentic storytelling and handcrafted work.
