All volunteers are responsible for paying their travel costs. We ask all volunteers to commit to spending at least seven days in-country with our team. If you’re ready to take the trip of a lifetime, connect with our team to learn more about upcoming trips.
You can help Ugandan entrepreneurs increase their product sales by hosting your own Fair Trade Craft Party. Imagine having a group of friends at your church, work, school, or club using your purchasing power to spark powerful change in the lives of our Ugandan women artisans and their families. We can ship craft packages to any location inside the continental U.S. You can choose which types of fair trade crafts you want included in your package.
We purchase our fair trade crafts from Ugandan women’s groups who receive a better than fair trade price for their products. They use their craft-making earnings to feed their children, pay school fees, buy medicines, and to help start or expand their small businesses they do in Uganda. Much of our U.S. labor is volunteer to help ensure as much craft party revenues as possible get back to Uganda. There, we purchase more Ugandan crafts and provide funding for education, health and home building empowerment programs in the Ugandan communities where we work.
There’s no cost to host, and the experience is incredibly rewarding. Ask about hosting your own Fair Trade Craft Party.
A great way to support entrepreneurs through Outreach Uganda is to establish a wholesaler relationship. If you have a craft or clothing shop (online or brick-and-mortar), we have an easy way to get beautiful, authentic Ugandan fair trade crafts delivered to you at a wholesale price. Your support helps make fair trade an everyday reality for Ugandan women.
