We are thrilled to announce that Phase One of Casa Café Santa Rita is officially underway!

April 2026 Update!

What was once an empty space is now on its way to becoming a beautiful, welcoming coffeehouse — and the transformation is already taking shape. Here is a glimpse of everything coming together:

  • Fresh neutral paint throughout the space

  • Beautiful new furniture on the way

  • Professional coffee equipment being installed

  • A fully remodeled restroom

  • A beautiful coffee bar build-out

  • Water source installations

  • Electricity

This is just the beginning of an amazing journey, and we want you to be part of it every step of the way. From the first coat of paint to the very first cup served, we are building something truly special in Santa Rita, Guatemala.

Stay close — the best is yet to come.

With excitement,

Casa Café Santa Rita Team

From Home to Community

February 2026

In a small town in Guatemala, a simple home is being transformed into something more — a community coffeehouse where people can gather, connect, and grow together.

We believe coffee creates space for conversation, belonging, and opportunity. This coffee house will become a welcoming place for students to study, families to connect, and neighbors to share life around one table.

Thanks to the generosity of supporters, coffee will be served free of charge, removing barriers and creating a space where everyone feels welcome — regardless of their ability to pay.

More than a café, this will be a living room for the community, supporting local coffee producers while fostering relationships, mentorship, and hope.

Contributions that make this project possible are personal gifts and are not tax-deductible, but they directly help create a space designed to serve people every day.

Gracias,

Walmer Landaverde
