Through the dedication and sacrifice of Ms. Silvia Via of Massachusetts, Via Guatemala Coffee (V.G.C.), once the hope of a Guatemalan orphan, has become a national and global phenomenon. The company has won praise for its superior flavor, health advantages, and altruistic philosophy. The boom in V.G.C. sales began with only online purchases; however, it is now offered by neighborhood restaurants, specialty shops, and supermarkets, and they are seeking out more partners.
Other coffee brands cannot be compared to the V.G.C. brand. It is a premium, organically grown product that was chosen from a local family farm’s highest-quality bean. According to studies, organic food has lower toxic and heavy metal levels, less pesticide residue, and more omega-3 fatty acids in its eggs, meat, and dairy products. Micronutrients like magnesium, potassium, niacin, B vitamins, and minerals are more abundant in organic coffee. Additionally, coffee is grown in a safer, less harmful manner by organic farmers. Fair trade standards are followed by organic farmers, ensuring environmental safety and sustainability.
As the demand for high-quality, organic coffee continues to rise, Via Guatemala Coffee (V.G.C.) is positioning itself as a leader in the industry. Not only does V.G.C. offer a superior tasting product, but they also prioritize environmental sustainability and social responsibility. V.G.C.’s commitment to fair trade standards and their partnership with the La Alianza Guatemala Youth Homeless Shelter demonstrates their dedication to giving back to the community. The company’s success has led to increased availability in local stores and restaurants, making it easier than ever for consumers to support a brand that values both quality and ethics. With V.G.C.’s rapid growth, it is clear that the world is ready for a coffee brand that offers more than just a caffeine boost.
Silvia’s success story is one that truly represents America, and it deserves to be honored. Silva raised her daughter through a prestigious boarding high school and, three years later, a college university, where she graduated with honors, in addition to managing and founding four profitable businesses while juggling her single motherhood and overcoming life’s challenges. Nearly a third of single-parent families in America today are headed by single mothers, who make up 80% of single-parent households.
In a recent study, the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis discovered that while single men have an average net worth of $59,000, single mothers have a median net worth of only $7,000. In total, that is more than eight times the wealth that single women possess. Silva was asked to join the board of directors for the La Alianza Guatemala Youth Homeless Shelter in Guatemala City because of her compassion and humanitarian outlook.
V.G.C. will donate a portion of every sale of coffee and chocolate to this charity. Being asked to join this board is an enormous honor. In Florida and Massachusetts, V.G.C. will be hosting a few tastings and events. Please don’t pass up the chance to try this top-notch brand. The Boston Marathon, which will take place at 370 Chestnut Hill Road on April 17th from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., is one upcoming event.
