Products include handcrafts and food items made by economically disadvantaged artisans and farmers. The sale of these items provides a sustainable livelihood for these small-scale producers.

The Fair Trade Sale is not a fundraiser. Over 90% of the purchase price goes directly back to support the artisans and farmers that produce the product.
