That’s right, folks. It is nearly upon us: Valentines Day. Sorry to break it to you. But, relax, you still have over two weeks left to find that little something special for the special person in your life, and Fair Trade Boston wants to help make that a little bit easier – and a little more ethical.
Today, we highlight Freedom Stones. This great organization operates as a non-profit, providing job training and employment to victims of human trafficking in Thailand, Cambodia and Ghana. Employment allows these young men and women to stay in their communities and live a full life without fear of needed to enter prostitution or bonded slavery.
This year, consider giving a gift that not only expresses your affection for someone special in your own life, but also a concern for those who live on the other side of the globe.
