    Description

    WHEAT's Fair Trade Store Needs You - Make a Commitment to Ethical Consumption through Fair Trade

    Volunteer in WHEAT's Fair Trade Store supporting lifestyle change internationally, as well as locally, through the fair trade and sale of handicrafts by artisans around the world.

    The Fair Trade Store is a major program of the World Hunger Education, Advocacy & Training organization -WHEAT - operating as an outreach project to end hunger and seek economic justice around the globe.

    Retail sale of fairly traded quality merchandise from multiple resources empowers the individual artisan and supports a sustainable way of life - providing economic resources for food, education and housing.

    Volunteers may work on displays, promotions and marketing; share the stories of the artisans with customers; visit community and church groups to tell our story; staff our booths at conferences, conventions and special events.
