Sweat-free clothing through Fair Trade

I recently wrote an article entitled: "Fair Trade vs. Sweatshops" which got such a response from the average person, I felt it worth posting here. A lot of people have heard about Fair Trade and may even know a little about it, but not many know that it is active in the fight against sweatshops and the exploitation of workers, mostly women and children.

This particular article tells about the group War on Want and its campaign to abolish sweatshops in it's region. I also wrote another article as a follow up entitled: "The Clean Clothes Campaign" which gives you a list of the offenders in the US who sell these items.

Womens Future Benefit is the name of the nonprofit Fair Trade organization I write for. On our website, we offer a free downloadable pdf on Sweatshops for anyone interested in this topic to get. It can be found on our Learn Page.

Should you want to write on this topic, I suggest your personal opinions on sweatshops, or your experiences with trying to buy sweat-free clothing or even your fair trade experiences. I hope this is of interest to you all and I look forward to buzzing you up soon.
