Dear FTF Members,
August already - time to start checking
things off of the summer bucket list. What are you determined to
accomplish before summer is over? (My list is too long to mention - I
suspect I'm not the only one!)

1. Fair Trade Principles Handout:
We're always looking for ways to spread the word about fair trade!
So, we've developed a new handout that explains the nine Fair Trade
Principles in an easy to read format. Click here to download a pdf version that is ready for you to cut, print and distribute. Click here to download a powerpoint version that is customizable with your organization's own logo and tagline.
Wholesalers, these make great "box stuffers" to add into your
shipments. Retailers and cafes, we hope these help you educate
consumers about fair trade. (And, as always, a complete description of
the Principles is available at www.FairTradeFederation.org/principles.)
2. FTF Listserrvs and Google Groups: We've
created two new google groups to help FTF members connect and share
information. And, of course, our existing listserrvs are still up and
running. Join the groups that are most relevant to your business (and
feel free to join more than one!)
