Sixteen years of offering Fair Trade products in Central Illinois...and you made that happen! Thank you to our loyal customers, thank you to our faithful volunteers. Thank you to our amazing vendors, who have brought beautiful craft items and tasty food products from around the world.  Thank you to the media and the socially conscious organizations in Central Illinois who have supported our mission.

Help us celebrate this Saturday with music and drumming on the sidewalk, sweet treats, games, and a drawing for a $25 gift certificate.  You can stop by Global Village any day this week to enter the drawing, one entry per person, per day.

This week we will share memories of projects and events that you have shared with  us.


In 2004-2005 and 2008-2010 you enabled us, through purchases and direct donations, to assist people in Guatemala and Haiti.
