DESCRIPTION:Come and enjoy your shopping by purchasing fair trade and locally made 
 items, as well as opportunities to re-think gift-giving.  Give a cow to a 
 family in Uganda in the name of your loved one (the gift that really keeps 
 on giving).  Give a hygiene kit, or vaccinations to children in Central 
 America.  Buy soaps made by a women's group in Chicago.   Purchase handmade 
 holiday cards from children in Asia, or a handmade beaded necklace from 
 women in Africa.  Enjoy the homemade goodies and treats - both to eat while 
 shopping and wrapped as a treat to take home to the family or use for your 
 next gathering.\n\nThe Resource Center is participating in this Fair Trade 
 market with gift items produced in fair trade conditions in Nicaragua, 
 Palestine and elsewhere, and local crafts. Give gifts that sustain artisans 
 and farmers in developing countries, and gifts that sustain the 
 environment.  Some examples: RCNV Palestinian Olive Oil (with new 
 products!), Nicaraguan weaving co-op handbags and backpacks, Heifer 
 Interntional, Bead for Life (Africa), Women’s Homeless Garden Project, 
 eating and serving ware from Santa Cruz potters and Nicaraguan fair trade 
 potters, local knits, weavings, jewelry.   Contact 426-2010.  \n
