55,000 Strong for World Fair Trade Day, 2009

The Fair Trade Resource Network is on a mission to find Americans, 55,000 to be exact, to take a fair trade break on May 9 of this year. A day before Mother's Day in the United States, the non-profit organization wants us to join hands with our international neighbors to celebrate fair trade.

A lofty goal, yes. But Finland hit over 50,000 just last October. Can Americans do it? Absolutely!

Share this video with your friends: http://tinyurl.com/d79xtn, plan and then post your event on the organization's Web site: www.FTRN.org.

Together we can make a difference! I hope you'll join me and your fellow Americans as we show the world that everything is better when it's fair trade!
