Fair Trade Holiday Shopping Night

Get a jump-start on your holiday shopping and put your money towards a good cause! Join us for a Fair Trade Holiday Shopping Night to benefit Global Mamas - a women's empowerment organization in Ghana. 

On Tuesday, November 19th from 7-9 pm, the Old Town Ten Thousand Villages will donate 10-20% of sales to the Global Mamas Building Prosperity campaign. This campaign will fund an eco-friendly production facility and create 200 jobs for women in Ghana. 

Ten Thousand Villages is the perfect place to pick up unique fair trade gifts from around the world. Come have a drink, enjoy a snack, and enter to win great raffle prizes from places like Global Mamas, Effie's Fair Trade Baby Store, and Alexandria's very own Dairy Godmother and MOM's Organic Market.

Please join us and bring a friend!
