More Host Testimonials

All across the U.S., Fair Trade supporters like you are working hard to raise awareness and build demand for Fair Trade. From house parties and café crawls, to film screenings and festivals, advocates have organized thousands of creative and inspiring activities that build the movement for Fair Trade and bring the benefits of globalization to people all over the world.

Why Host a Fair Trade Event?
You are part of an international movement that is harnessing globalization to be equitable and empowering for people all around the globe. By getting involved in Fair Trade, you can achieve the following goals:

• Increase demand for Fair Trade Certified products by encouraging consumers to look for the label when they shop. Buying Fair Trade products helps to build a more equitable global economy and directly benefits farming families in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
  
  
• Engage members of your community to become active in the Fair Trade Movement. We rely on grassroots supporters all over the country to spread the Fair Trade message, and most get involved after attending a Fair Trade event!
  
  
• Support TransFair USA's work financially. We recognize that you may not have thought about using your event as a fundraiser, but we would like you to consider it. We have provided materials to help you think through this component and we are happy to speak with you if you would like any additional support.
  
  

Event Ideas

• Throw a Fair Trade House Party! A house party doesn't have to be in a house and doesn't have to be a traditional party - anything goes! We offer sample timelines and all the tools you need to host a great event.
  
  
• Have a Fair Trade Film Festival! When you sign up for your Fair Trade Action Kit we automatically send you a short DVD, Fair Trade: The Story. We also provide discussion guides for other Fair Trade films.
  
  
• Host a Fair Trade Product Tasting. Who doesn't love free chocolate? Be sure to display the packaging so your guests can remember what they are tasting. Our licensed company partners may even be able to provide complimentary samples of their Fair Trade Certified products for your event.
