The Freedom Café of Durham

SERVING QUALITY TEA AND COFFEE TO END HUMAN

TRAFFICKING

There are an estimated 29.8 Million people enslaved in the

world today.

Yes, slavery still exists today.

And the Freedom Café of Durham exists to help stop it. - Human Trafficking is the fastest growing illegal trade, 2nd most profitable only to drug trafficking, netting $32 billion per year. - Cases of human trafficking have been reported in all 50 States. - 66% women, 22% children, 12% men. Those stats are the tip of the iceberg. We implore you to take a moment, and start with the website listed above. The issue is everywhere, and solving it long term is going to take time and a far-sighted approach. That’s where we come in.

VISION The Freedom Café seeks to raise awareness and resources to support ending the worldwide atrocities of human trafficking and slavery.

MISSION The Freedom Café provides high quality beverages in a friendly and educational atmosphere. Through our normal café hours and our community and seminar events, we invite the community into the Anti-Trafficking Movement. We then donate our proceeds to reputable organizations or projects involved in the process of ending human trafficking and slavery.

VALUES Expertise

Organic and Ethical Sourcing

Partnership

Hospitality

Empowerment

Openness and Transparency

OUR BUSINESS MODEL As you can see to the right, we only must cover the cost of consumables. The customer (Freedom Drinker) receives any consumable at no charge. They are then invited to make a fair market donation to The Freedom Cafe of Durham. On our end, we designate ~$1 of each donation to pay cover product costs and awareness materials. Everything you give over the initial $1 is then gifted to a reputable non-profit working in the field to end human trafficking and slavery.

HOW DOES IT WORK? For-Profit vs. our Non-Profit Approach

Traditional For-Profit Café What typically goes into determining the price of your

coffee, tea, or consumable?

1) Price of inventory 5) Utilities 2) Equipment 6) Staffing 3) Rent/Lease on building 7) Related Costs 4) Insurance 8) Profit Margin

All of these are paid for in your $2-5 Café Beverage.

*OUR* Non-Profit Café We drive down the overhead costs through generous

donations and volunteer power.

1) Price of Inventory $0.20-$1.00 per cup 2) Equipment Covered by Fusion Community Church 3) Rent/Lease In-kind donation from Lighthouse Ministries 4) Insurance Covered by Church of the Rock 5) Utilities In-kind donation from Lighthouse Ministries 6) Staffing Volunteers and Sponsors 7) Related Costs YOUR donations and Sponsors
