According to the Fair Trade Federation, women made up 76% of non-agricultural fair trade production in 2008 and many of them are mothers. This Mother’s Day, we are recognizing those inspiring Fair Trade mothers with our “Tell us your ‘Inspiring Mother’ Story” contest.

Is your mother the guiding light in your life? Know a mother who is making a big difference in the world? Has she made a lasting impact on you and on others? Let us know. Email us your stories to storemaster@globalexchange.org with “Mother’s Day” contest story in the subject line, and we will feature them on the blog. Photos are also encouraged. When you share your story, you are automatically entered to win a fantastic Fair Trade prize made by mothers, for mothers. The winner will be announced after Mother’s Day.
