The Chain Collaborative (TCC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that co-creates opportunities and strengthens capacities for community-led change in the coffee sector. We build relationships with local leaders and their community-based organizations in coffee-producing regions, putting change-making power into the hands of under-resourced leaders who are the most equipped to drive impact in their own communities. TCC firmly believes that sustainable change comes from local leadership.

Through our flagship program, the Community-Led Development Incubator, we partner with emerging organizations in coffee-growing regions of Latin America and East Africa, providing access to ﬁrst-time funding for their community-driven initiatives. Each participant designs, executes, and measures a community project in collaboration with their community members, leading to increased income generation, knowledge development, women and youth participation in agriculture, greater climate resilience, and more. Since its start in 2022, the Community-Led Development Incubator program has fostered and funded the launch of projects in ten communities across Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Colombia, Ecuador, Rwanda, DR Congo and Uganda.
