Support World Fair Trade Day Shopping and Saving Today (& Every Day!)

This Saturday, May 13th, something pretty amazing will happen. People across five continents will join hands in celebration of World Fair Trade Day. These “Agents of Change,” as the World Fair Trade Organization describes participants, will create a global-wide human chain to show their support for those providing and buying fair trade products.

worldfairIn case you are not sure exactly what “Fair Trade” means, you’re not alone, making this day a great way to raise awareness for this important cause. “Fair Trade” stands for foods and products that are produced under very strict standards designed to end and prevent sweatshop labor conditions, to protect our environment, and to battle poverty. Various Fair Trade charities helping to support this practice include Fair Trade Resource Network and Domestic Fair Trade Association, as well as regional ones such as Chicago Fair Trade and Fair Trade Flagstaff.

Even if you’re not planning on joining the human chain tomorrow, you can show your support for this, or any cause, while saving bundles from the online stores you shop. Check out our top coupons, stores and exclusive savings trending now.
