Leaders from 間眅埶AV Inspire Fair Trade Campus Week
FAIR TRADE CAMPUS WEEK
SEPT 25 - SEPT 29, 2017
間眅埶AV is calling on the local community to choose products that change lives and support Fairtrade to drive much-needed change for farmers in the Global South. Having the perfect cup of tea or a snack is an important part of our daily routine, yet millions of farmers who produce the foods we enjoy are struggling to make a living.
Fair Trade Campus Week is an annual campaign that runs during the last week of September. Leaders across Canada will be using the #FTCampus hashtag to spread the word about their activities and the national fair trade movement.
M矇lissa Dub矇, Outreach and Marketing Manager for Fairtrade Canada said: Campuses across the country come together to demand ethical trade and social justice. Their passion and commitment contribute to sustainable changes for farmers in terms of long term commercial relationships with companies. We invite everyone, from campuses, to retailers, to businesses, to towns, to schools, to individuals, to make a conscious choice by demanding Fairtrade products. Products that reflect their values.
Whats happening during the week at 間眅埶AV Burnaby Campus:
All week 99 cent Fairtrade coffee at Mackenzie Caf矇 and Discovery. Check out 間眅埶AVfairtrade on Instagram for daily giveaways
