Congratulations to The Fair Trade Shop Cebu for winning 2nd place in Sinulog Festival's "On Site Decor" Competition last weekend. The decorations were made out of recycled materials, produced by the Wo-men's of Quijano - a foundation providing scholarships to deserving students and provide livelihood work for the parents. Other elements to the decorations were crazy-weave made by fair trade group Gabay sa Bagong Pag-asa ng Napo.
It was the first time The Fair Trade Shop, Cebu joined the competition. Ronald Lagazo, APFTI's area coordinator says: "This prize is heartwarming, as it shows that Cebuanos appreciate and value the skill and resourcefulness that goes into these environmentally-friendly and fair trade decorations."
