Virtual Holiday Fair Trade Shop

Last year during our first sponsored Holiday Fair Trade Pop-up Shop, we were able to support women, children and small farmers. This year, COVID has been devastating for these groups. The virus has caused greater need and, not only closed our sale, but all in person venues where they raised the bulk of their money.

This December, First Parish will promote the wares of three such groups. If you are shopping for the holidays, please consider checking out these wonderful crafts that support others. Don’t need any more items? Consider giving a donation in someone’s name to send a child to school.

Our promoted vendors include a Ugandan group that supports education and small businesses; a Guatamalan group that supports a school; and our Fair Trade coffee, chocolates, and other goodies that support farmers throughout the world. All of these vendors were at our Fair Trade Pop-Up Holiday Shop in the Vestry last December.
