Support Fair Trade in Atlanta!

Ten Thousand Villages is in search of Volunteers.

Volunteers are needed to go out to local churches and various locations to transport merchandise, set up, maintain, share Fair Trade message and stories and clean up off site sales.

This is a great way to help out!

You will be selling Fair Trade items to Ten Thousand Village customers. You will be learning about Fair Trade, learning the wonderful Artisan stories that go with the products. This is a wonderful way to broaden your worldview and make new friends.
