Former sex workers in Cambodia, AIDS orphans in Rwanda, and marginalized farmers in Palestinian communities are just some of the world’s poorest people who are hoping that American churchgoers will buy their Christmas gifts through a fair trade organization this season.
Instead of shopping at the local mall, Christian company Trade As One is urging American believers to consider buying gifts that will make a deep impact on the life of the producers and help fight global poverty.
The company this year is calling on churches to rally behind the idea of “Just One” – that if every churchgoer in America would buy just one fair trade purchase then it would be enough money to lift one million families out of poverty for one whole year.
