Transform Trade: We Asked… And You Delivered
And we can’t thank you enough
In February we launched the Producer Fund to invest in producers, workers and artisans who are at risk from Traidcraft's closure. We've been blown away by your generosity.
Earlier this month a generous group of ethical businesses and donors came together to match an extra £40,000 worth of donations. Thanks to you, we've been able to meet that match.
So far we've raised over £190,000 to support producers who are fighting against injustice and showing the world that it is possible to do trade that benefits people and our planet.
But we are just getting started... by the end of May we want to raise £250,000 so we can help producers seeking new markets in the face of Traidcraft's closure, and kickstart inspirational new work with ethical businesses.
There's still time to donate <https://transform-trade.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=742651e2cb92ae3a9ca13a3d9&id=712c037912&e=952e550679>
Producers like Kazi Yetu - a women-led social enterprise in Tanzania who produce tea, spices and herbs. Unlike other companies who ship the raw materials to Europe for processing, Kazi Yeti keep everything in Tanzania, meaning they can pay farmers more for their produce and ensuring a fully transparent and traceable products.
With your generous support we can help producers like Kazi Yetu to invest in environmentally techniques, reach more marginalised artisans, switch to sustainable production, and improve their marketing so they can expand their sales.
Whether its training, equipment, product development or access to new markets, together we can respond to the needs of these small businesses doing amazing work. With your help, they can continue to change lives and show the world that there’s a bright future for ethical trade.
Step by step, together we can change the face of trade.
