The Forest Foundation begins Fundraising for Fair Trade Store on Franklin Street, Chapel Hill, NC

“The goal is to create a place were people can meet, shop, share and educate themselves about important issues of the day, and show their support for sustainable development through their purchases,” says Marc Dreyfors, the Forest Foundation’s President. “We are hoping that we can gain a critical mass of support in Chapel Hill/Carrboro area to launch the third fair trade store in the Triangle.”
