At Ten Thousand Villages, fair trade isn’t just a label; it’s a commitment to creating opportunities for artisans around the world. By partnering directly with artisans in underrepresented communities, they ensure:

  • Fair wages that empower families.
  • Sustainable practices that protect the planet.
  • Cultural connections that preserve traditions.

Every item tells a story—from handwoven textiles to intricately carved wooden figurines, each piece carries the artistry and spirit of its maker. Shopping fair trade is a way to celebrate the true essence of the holidays: compassion, community, and care for our shared world.

Let’s celebrate What Matters

Join us on December 1st for a night of meaningful giving, delicious treats, and a celebration of what truly matters this holiday season: people and the planet. Together, we can make a difference, one thoughtful gift at a time.

We hope to see you there!
