Marketplace of Fair Trade Crafts Concern America’s

What is Concern America? Concern America is a unique nonprofit, nonsectarian, nongovernmental development and refugee aid organization. What does all this mean? It means that the organization was created, without a political or sectarian agenda, to partner with materially poor communities living in impoverished regions of “developing” countries and with materially poor communities living in refuge outside of their homeland, for the purpose of improving the life situations of those communities.

What is a Marketplace of Fair Trade Crafts? Concern America fair trade crafts make great gifts year around and hosting a Marketplace of Fair Trade Crafts is one way for you to help promote fair trade and justice in the marketplace and support the work of Concern America in impoverished communities.

What is Fair Trade? Fair Trade means that trading partnerships are based on reciprocal benefits and mutual respect; that prices paid to producers reflect the work they do; that national health, safety, and wage laws are enforced; and that products are environmentally sustainable and conserve natural resources.

Who makes the crafts we sell? Community members are organized into cooperatives to manufacture products or provide services (brick-making, roofing tile production, making of handcrafts, sewing cooperatives, food store cooperatives) which are marketable and income-producing. These cooperatives return their profits to projects which are set up to benefit the community at large, eventually making it possible for the projects to become self-sustaining. Decent paying and meaningful jobs can become a reality in the most remote of villages, while making lives healthier, less burdensome, more fulfilling, and more secure.
