My Fair Gift List
Budget travelers like gifts too so if you're looking for gift ideas this holiday season, check out Global Exchange.
Global Exchange is an international human rights organization dedicated to promoting environmental, political and social justice. Since our founding in 1988, we have increased the US public's global awareness while building partnerships worldwide.
The mission of Global Exchange's Fair Trade Program is to successfully market fairly-traded products in order to increase benefits for producers and consumers through economic fairness, mutual respect, and understanding, and build support for a more sustainable system of trade. We strive to pay a fair price to disadvantaged producers and to support producer-initiated efforts to improve their quality of life. In addition, we seek to increase understanding and activism of U.S. consumers about unfair trade practices and the fair trade alternative.
Their online store includes crafts, coffee, books and much more.
Thanks for the link Alex!
