Hello, advocates!

How was your 4th of July weekend (for you Americans out there)? Mine was absolutely wonderful. It was full of hiking, swimming, cookouts, and fireworks: just every classic summer activity you could think of!

I decided to write about fair trade shopping this week; specifically, ways to be a better fair-trade friendly shopper/consumer. You can read the article by clicking on this link:

In the forum, we’re talking about the types of activities we do or have done as volunteers, as a follow-up to a previous newsletter I sent. I hope you’ll join us and tell us about your experiences as a volunteer! Visit us here at this link:

That’s all for now. Have an amazing week!
