Leaves changing lives
Welcome to Give & Tea, where the humble little tea leaf is changing lives and every sip is a step towards positive change.
As a community interest company, 100% of our profits are dedicated to uplifting communities in East Africa. We do this through funding projects run by partner organisations on the ground in both Kenya & Tanzania.
Our focus is on providing accessibility to the basics; education, food, healthcare and sustainability. Our goal it to impact as many lives as we can, especially those of young people. Because all our profits go into our projects, every cup of our tea really does make a meaningful impact on the lives of others!
We also thought you'd like to know that our packaging and teabags are 100% plastic (& guilt) free, because although we LOVE a good cup of tea that gives back, we also want to minimise the impact on our planet.
By choosing Give & Tea, you're not just enjoying a cup of exceptional tea, you're choosing to participate in a movement for social change and creating a better world.
Our Story
At the heart of our journey lies a simple yet profound belief: the power to change lives is steeped in the warmth of a cup of tea. Give & Tea was born from the idea that a cup of tea could be transformed into a force for good.
The Inspiration
The seed for Give & Tea was planted through feeling compelled to do more to give back beyond regular donations. We were inspired to create a venture that went beyond the ordinary; to fund already-established organisations, already doing amazing work to widen their impact and reach their goals.
Brewing Change, One Cup at a Time
Give & Tea became a commitment to contribute to positive change. Our mission was clear: to use the proceeds from our tea sales to uplift the very communities that needed our support, through organisations that inspired us. Every cup of Give & Tea serves a dual purpose; to provide moments of joy for tea lovers and, more importantly, to fuel projects that address the critical needs of these deserving communities.
Our areas of focus:
The heart of our initiatives lies in education. We believe in the transformative power of knowledge, so we invest in children's education programs, further education and adult vocational training, creating opportunities for growth and self-sufficiency. From providing essential resources to supporting the pursuit of dreams, Give & Tea is dedicated to fostering a brighter future for children, young adults and women, alike.
We understand that a thriving community requires more than just education. Our commitment extends to ensuring access to basic necessities – from daily meals to clean water, we strive to address the fundamental needs that lay the foundation for a healthy and secure life.
Healthcare is a cornerstone of our mission. Give & Tea supports initiatives that provide essential medical care through on-site clinics or funding the healthcare needs of children, contributing to the overall well-being of the communities we serve. We believe that good health is the key to unlocking human potential.
Give & Tea is not just about immediate impact; it's about building a sustainable future. We invest in eco-friendly and sustainable solutions to ensure that our actions today contribute to a better tomorrow; everything from planting more trees to finding more sustainable alternatives for everyday activities like cooking.
