Helping Small Farmers Build a Better Future for their Families & Communities
|
|
Equal Exchange currently works with more than 20 small
farmer organizations in 13 developing countries. Our trading partners are small farmer co-operatives — businesses owned and governed democratically by the farmers themselves.

|
Training programs for women in Guatemala, an ecotourism project in Nicaragua, new classrooms in El Salvador
— these are all examples of the initiatives that co-ops have taken in their own communities with the income and support of Equal Exchange and other Fair Trade Organizations.
Fair Trade helps build pride, independence and
community empowerment for small farmers and their families in poor
countries in Latin America, Africa and Asia. |
