How are Troy Middle Schoolers using coffee to save the day?

Middle school students in Troy, New York, were inspired to make a difference after learning about the challenges faced by young women in Guatemala. The students organized a fundraiser by selling coffee beans, with the help of a local coffee company. They were able to raise enough money to pay for the education of three Guatemalan girls who could not afford to go to school. The students' efforts not only changed the lives of these girls but also opened their eyes to the impact they can have on the world. They hope to connect with the girls they helped through a video call in the future.
