5th Annual Fair Trade and Conscious Gifts Holiday Bazaar – A Photo Report
December 19, 2010
Our 2010 Fair Trade and Conscious Gifts Holiday Bazaar was held on Saturday December 11th at the Immanuel Presbyterian Church in Los Angeles. The yearly event has become a local staple during the holiday season, with devoted supporters of Afghan Women’s Mission attending each year to do their holiday shopping. This year we partnered with over a dozen local vendors selling international Fair Trade products or their own locally made goods.
Special thanks to our media sponsor KPFK, and to Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf for refreshments. Click here to see the announcement and flyer for the event.
Afghan Women’s Mission set up two large tables to display our products made by Afghan women who are trained in RAWA’s income generation projects.
