Steps to volunteering to host a Fair Trade Artisan sale:

1. Email Education And More for an application and order form.

2. Tell us about your group and how you are planning on selling the handcrafts.

3.. Fill out completely and give us information on the size of your sale including your preferences of what type of handcrafts you would like to sell.

4. Return application and order form at least 4 weeks before sale.

5. Decide on date of your sale and begin advertising to the community, to friends, to your church about the Fair Trade handcraft sale.

6. Learn more about Fair Trade thru our blog or on this website and explain to attendees how the artisans earn more money and benefits because of Fair Trade.

7. After the sale return unsold handcrafts and a send a check for product sold, within two weeks on your last sale date.

Your church or organization can help educate about Fair Trade and the benefits that it gives to artisans. Be sure to read our webpage on Fair Trade.

A Fair Trade home party is similar to a Tupperare party. We will supply brochures and a Powerpoint Cd so that your guests can learn about the artisans and children their purchases will help. They can see photos of the ladies and learn how Fair Trade benefits them. We will send you a select group of handcrafts for you to sell based on your preferences on the order form.

If your Spanish club or Fair Trade Student Group at school would like to help by hosting a sale you could ask for permission to set up in the commons or lunch area for several days in a row to tell about Guatemala and Fair Trade. Your Fair Trade Student group could also host a larger marketplace on a weekend and publicize it to the community.

If your Church Organization is interested in helping our artisans, host a sale before and after services or pick a weekend and host a large bazaar of Fair Trade handcrafts.

Notice..........

Education And More is glad to partner with your non-profit, church, school or community group to help you raise dollars for your programs.
