Learn coffee while sponsoring a Deaf barista! Happening on February 24 to 26, 2023, every participant who registers enables us to sponsor a Deaf barista in this 3-day bootcamp that coincides with the Grand Float Parade during the Flower Festival in Baguio. Aside from coffee workshops, where we will plant trees, roast coffee beans and learn the different brewing methods, a Deaf Culture Awareness and Basic Sign Language training will be conducted for those who want to interact with the Deaf participants.

Our very first event was launched among God's people at the Intentional Discipleship Conference last January at the Christ Commission Fellowship Main Campus! Through the partnership with VerraCoffee, coffee cultivated by Filipino indigenous farmers were brewed and served by our Deaf baristas!
Events such as these helped us give more employment opportunities to PWDs and also income to our local farmers. Watch out for more events through our planned caravans soon!
The very first Basic Barista Training where BoldHands Academy sponsored Deaf participants in this training organized by VerraCoffee and conducted by Farm to Cup Philippines. A group of Deaf participants get an overview of roasting and brewing Philippine coffee in Taytay Rizal. Farm to Cup Philippines chairman Eli Natividad conducts the coffee training workshop with Boldhands Academy co-founder GP Palma interpreting in Filipino Sign Language. This is initiative aims to help more of our PWDs acquire skills that will give them more opportunities for employment. Participants earned certificates leading to TESDA Barista NCII.
