    • To market products that reflect and reinforce rich cultural traditions, that are environmentally sensitive, and which appeal to local consumers;
    • To increase availability of fair trade products;
    • To encourage our customers to learn about fair trade and to appreciate producers' cultural heritages;
    • To support producers who are bringing justice, hope, and peace to marginalized communities;
    • To trade with producer groups who pay fair wages and treat their members with fairness and respect;
    • To use resources carefully and value volunteers who work in the store; and
    • To annually set aside funds for projects in support of similar non-profit organizations.
