The self-declared “First Fair Trade Town in America” Media, Pennsylvania, hosted their first annual Fair Trade Concert on Sunday. Vendors, multicultural performers and non-profit organizations interacted with hundreds of guests at the all-day fair. ONE and CARE shared a table and we signed up nearly 200 new members!
Between noon and seven in the evening there was a constant flow to our table of interested concertgoers and many people grabbed white bands to wear the rest of the day. We found a very friendly audience in this socially-conscious community!
