About John Halliday

The Community Fund was established by five individual donors who strongly support the Fund as a source of low-interest loans and small grants for environmental improvements. In 2008 it was named as a memorial to John Halliday, one of the Fund Founders. John Halliday, aka "Johnny coffee bean," believed in providing opportunities for everyone to pursue their entrepreneurial spirit. He was also known for sending gifts of coffee to friends, family and new acquaintances as well. John passed away on December 25, 2007.

You can honor John's memory and directly help fund cooperative-based projects by donating to the John Halliday Community Fund.
