About us
The Houston Coffee Collective is a pending 501(c)3 community organization that serves as a platform for coffee enthusiasts and professionals to connect, share knowledge and promote growth within the community with the following goals:
To provide a platform to build connections between the general and coffee community
To organize and assist with social, educational, competitive and informative coffee events
To share knowledge and create and provide resources to the wider community
To create opportunities for individuals who work in coffee to develop (from beginner to professional levels)
To act as a contact point, resource, and sounding board for the Houston coffee community
To offer as many services as possible for low cost or free to the local community
We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to discover and explore the opportunities that coffee brings on an economic, socio-cultural, educational level. HtxCC is based in Houston and aims to prioritize Houston and surrounding cities. We will also look to connect with coffee professionals across disciplines and geographical limitations when necessary.
HtxCC formed as a volunteer-led organization in 2018 and has since been a reference for new coffee shops, job searches, hospitality requests and host of national and international competitions, educational and social events. Events held by the HtxCC have been self funded and/or relied on sponsorships and support from the local community. The goal going forward is to be able to sustain the established programs to give back to the community that has supported us on individual and business levels.
