'Tea People' is a Social Enterprise Offering Specialty Beverages
Social Business Editor — May 31, 2014 — Social Good
Tea is good enough on its own but Tea People adds its own sweetness by providing supporting education programs through its products. At least half of their profits support Darjeeling in the Himalayas, a region that is massively under-resourced.
The philosophy is simple enough: "We believe that 'tea is what you make it'. Tea can be different things to different people and with a little effort, creativity and innovation, it can even become a powerful medium for social change." Certainly, if you're invested in social entrepreneurship you know the capacity for any and all things to be transformative in the name of societal good. It just takes a little though and a little work.
