Our 31 Days of Fair Trade has begun!
Have you heard? Global Exchange along with our friends at Equal Exchange and Green Halloween have set up 31 days of fun ideas and activities (and a contest!) that will have you eating Fair Trade bananas, hosting movie screenings, baking delicious Fair Trade goodies, recycling Halloween costumes, and giving out Fair Trade chocolates to trick-or-treaters.
So far so good!
So far this month, we’ve had folks getting in the Fair Trade habit and watching a movie about Potong Cooperative Tea Garden in India. (With every viewing, Equal Exchange is donating a tea bush to farmers in India.)
And we’re just getting started…the month has barely begun, so there’s lots of actions still ahead to look forward to. Let’s take action together.
Here’s how to TAKE ACTION:
- Check out the calendar of 31 Days of Fair Trade Action activities so you can take action daily to support Fair Trade
- Visit FairTradeHalloween.org for the whole list of actions
- Follow us on twitter @GXFairTrade or on Facebook where we will deliver your daily action each morning at #fairtrade31.
Looking forward to taking action with you.
