COFFEE ROASTERS

Dignified Work in Every Cup

Cephas is a Texas micro-roaster built on a simple idea: coffee can be a vehicle for dignified work. We roast calmly and cleanly, then pack and fulfill orders alongside student workers in inclusive job training programs.

Our Mission

We believe meaningful work builds confidence. So every bag helps create dignified, real-world opportunities for students with disabilities.

How It Works

  1. Roast — Small batches on a pro roaster for clarity and balance.
  2. Pack — Students label, weigh, and seal in a permitted workspace.
  3. Ship — Orders go out fresh on a tight weekly cadence.
Every order funds paid hours & training

Impact Snapshot

This year’s goal: 200+ paid training hours and 3 on-campus workstations supported through coffee.

We track hours, tasks, and growth with partner educators — then iterate like any good roastery.

Our Story

We roast in small batches because it keeps us present. The name Cephas — a nod to Peter, the rock — reflects our aim to build something steady, dignified, and meaningful. It’s the same reason we build workflows with students — real tasks, real accountability, and plenty of wins along the way. “Dignified work” isn’t a slogan. It’s a design constraint.

The Cephas mark nods to woodcut craft and durable typography. The coffee follows suit: steady sweetness, low drama, cups you actually want every day.
