Fair Trade Mother’s Day!

Mother’s Day is just around the corner and I don’t know about you but I adore my mother and look forward to celebrating the day with her and other family too, my own son included! Mothers play an important role in the lives of their children the world over. In the developing world fair trade is helping to create a better world for mothers and their children. While women often do much of the work on small non-fair trade farms and plantations they still face discrimination but fair trade strives to empower women. Because fair trade works to create a more democratic work place that is free of harassment women have the opportunity to take on strong leadership roles.
