FTGOC is a grassroots-coalition comprised of community organizations, activist groups, religious organizations, local businesses and concerned community members that have signed-on in support of FTGOC’s endeavor to pass the Fair Trade Resolution.
Our mission is to educate the community about the Fair Trade alternative and expand the market for Fair Trade products. By doing this we are helping farmers and artisans in developing countries get a fair price for their products, gain fair market access, improve their chances to care for their families and improve the condition of their communities. When you buy Fair Trade you get the chance to actively be a part of poverty alleviation, environmental protection and international peace.
