Fair Trade Products are available for purchase every 3rd Sunday in Fellowship Hall after worship service (excl. July and August). Why do we sell these products?
Through the UCC Fair Trade (Coffee) Project, small farmers and their families gain more control over their lives, earn a fairer share of income, have access to credit and technical support, and gain a trading partner they can trust, a fair trade organization called Equal Exchange. By making this consumer choice, you support small scale farmers and workers throughout the world and encourage careful stewardship of God's creation.
For each pound of fairly traded coffee, chocolate, tea, and foods purchased through the UCC Coffee Project, 15 cents per pound from Equal Exchange goes to the Justice and Witness Ministries' Small Farmer Fund.
At fellowship coffee hour, you will be taking action in a spirit of love. We also include a small donation above the wholesale cost to help the coffee hour fund. Cash and checks accepted.
