Grupo Mariana decided long ago that if we are going to be in business in Nicaragua, the end result needs to not only have a positive effect on the people and places around us, but be a true catalyst for positive growth, change and sustainability.

We have decided to dedicate 5% from every single sale we make from every Grupo Mariana business toward reinvestment in the strength and economic development of Nicaraguan communities. Managed by Fundación Grupo Mariana, our program is called “5% For Futures,” and it is our way of connecting the focus of our business to a larger, more important purpose. While 5% from the sale of a pound of Grupo Mariana coffee might sound like a small hill of beans to some, 5% of every real estate sale within a community – well that just might add up to an amount that can move mountains.

5% For Futures is not only a program. It is Grupo Mariana’s Promise, and their reason for being in business in the first place. Our 5% for Futures Program is an investment in the future of Nicaragua. Funds dedicated toward the economic development of the Mariana Region support not only the daily lives of those who live, work and play here, but the continued success of Nicaragua’s Pacific Coast as a whole.
