Thank you to all who came out to WineWorks on Sunday for our Sips, Sweets & Solidarity event! It was so great to celebrate 25 years of Activism with some of our supporters.

We hope that those who joined us enjoyed the wine from WineWorks, the Fair Trade chocolate from Alter Eco, and getting to meet fellow activists.

Conversations abounded; topics from Fair Trade, fracking, and Syria to what Global Exchange is working on now, including our Voices of the Victims speaking tour and 25th Anniversary Reality Tour to Oaxaca.
