How can you help? Donations Some of the financial support of Three Americas, Inc., is provided by donors who give us the resources for particular projects in which they are interested and for the general use of Three Americas, Inc., to meet expenses.

Send your contact information to Three Americas, Inc., P.O. Box 711, Santa Cruz, CA 95061, or to ccrcnica@cruzio.com, or call 831/426-2798. Local to Santa Cruz, California? Come to potluck dinner meetings on 1st Wednesdays of every month at 717 Walnut Ave., Santa Cruz, CA, and attend advertised events of Three Americas, Inc. Call (831) 426-2798 or email ccrcnica@cruzio.com for specific information. Volunteer your time. A few hours a week would make a lot of difference. There are mailers, coffee sales to prepare for, work at the coffee booth, help with events. Volunteering is fun and rewarding, and your time will be felt in far away places with gratitude. Lastly, we hope to create a website and start a newsletter, and we need someone who is interested to be trained to do this, or someone who is experienced to help put them together. Help us to organize and catalogue materials for a Three Americas, Inc., library. Buy coffee.

We will inform you about the countries where the coffee is grown, the benefits of the fair traded, organic, shade grown, gourmet coffee that they sell, and about the projects of Three America, Inc. We are especially grateful for the support given Three Americas, Inc., by Colleen Crosby and Bronson Baker, owners of the Santa Cruz Roasting Company and Aptos Coffee roasting establishments, and who are pioneers in featuring the sale of fair traded coffee in the United States, who help make our coffee sales profitable.
