Redefining the Coffee Break

OU is getting its own chapter of an international club that strives to make a difference in the lives of Africans.

Mocha Club is run by the idea that seven dollars a month, what you would usually spend on coffee, can have a big impact in Africa. The club has five programs that they take part in: child mothers/women at risk, clean water, education, hiv/aids/health care and orphan care.

Other organizations ask you to give 30 dollars a month and I feel like that is such a big commitment, said Ashlee Adams, OU chapter Mocha Club President. This is a more tangible commitment and easy for just about any one to achieve.

The club will become official next week and hopes to add more members and to raise awareness of its cause.
