Fair Trade Ministry

The Catholic Relief Services Fair Trade network guarantees fair wages to disadvantaged artisans, farmers and workers. It also provides the technical and financial assistance that poor people so desperately need but so rarely get in the conventional trading system. The Fair Trade Ministry at Light of the World helps support this mission by making important information and Fair Trade products available to members of the parish and the surrounding community. When you choose to buy fair trade products you are making a strong connection with hardworking but impoverished workers around the world. Fair Trade Coffee, Tea, and Chocolate are available for purchase at the St. Thomas Aquinas Food Pantry and after all of the Masses at Light of the World each Community Sunday.
