Thank you for your interest in supporting GCAG Indonesia 2026. GCAG is a community-based coffee education project by I’M NOT A BARISTA, created to bring practical learning, useful tools, and direct support to young coffee farmers at origin. In 2026, we are bringing the next chapter of GCAG to East Java, Indonesia. This application page is for individuals, businesses, coffee shops, roasters, traders, educators, designers, and community partners who would like to contribute to the project in their own way.

There is no single way to join. Some people may choose to support with funding, some with coffee or tools, some by organizing local events, and others through skills, promotion, or on-the-ground support. What matters most is a shared belief in doing something meaningful together.

Please fill out the form below and tell us a bit about yourself, your business, and how you’d like to be involved. After reviewing your application, we may arrange a short call to better understand your idea and explore the next steps together. We’re grateful for your interest, and excited to hear from you.

How would you like to support GCAG Indonesia 2026?*

The GCAG Charity Cupping is a new fundraising initiative designed to bring coffee communities together in a meaningful and practical way. Our suggested fundraising goal is $100 USD per shop, but you are welcome to organize more than one event if you’d like to raise more support.

Of course, if your event raises more, that’s wonderful. If your event is smaller, that’s completely okay too. What matters most is joining the effort and becoming part of this shared global project.

We also hope to encourage as many partners as possible to host their events on one shared global cupping day, if timing allows. The final date will be announced later.

Estimated Global Charity Cupping campaign period: June–July 2026

To simplify logistics and keep the experience consistent, coffees for GCAG Charity Cupping events will be coordinated, roasted, and prepared through our selected coffee partners and team.

GCAG Charity Cupping Standards

To help keep the spirit of the project clear and meaningful, we ask that all partner events follow a few simple principles:

-Clearly mention that the event supports GCAG Indonesia 2026
-Include at least one short introduction to the project during the event
-Keep the event respectful, welcoming, and community-oriented
-Donate the profits, or the agreed portion of the profits, transparently
-Share a short recap, along with photos and/or videos after the event
