Fair Trade Shopping for the Holidays!

There are several opportunities to shop for fair trade gifts in San Diego and online with our local vendors. St. Paul's Cathedral will have a booth from Ten Thousand Villages.  This booth alone is worth your time! Following this event, Point Loma Nazarene University celebrates each year with a "Roots for Giving" fair trade event.  Lots of vendors and lots of food on December 4th.

FAIR TRADE GIFT FAIR IN LA MESA
WAS A SUCCESS! 
 
Thank you to all who made this event so successful!  The vendors, the shoppers, the supporters!

Vendors included: All Across Africa, Around the World Gifts, Ben & Jerry's, Cafe Virtuoso, Dr, Bronners, Fair Trade Decor,  Guatemala Project, Partners Fair Trade Boutique, the *5th and 8th grades classes at St. Martin Academy, Threads Worldwide, Tomorrow Project & Vavavida.

A very special thank you also goes to Ben & Jerry's Seaport Village who donated scoops of fair trade ice-cream and to Rigo at Cafe Virtuoso who served over 9 gallons of fair trade coffee.  Both gave their tips to the 8th grade class and to Fair Trade San Diego.  We also thank Dr. Bonners who gave us a basket of their fair trade soaps to raffle. We salute them!
