Give Gifts That Give More! Alternative Gift Fair at UCU

Past event
Dec 4, 2016, 12 to 2 PM

Do you want to avoid the crowds this holiday season? Do you need thoughtful gifts for those "people who have everything" on your list? We can help! This Sunday, you can get a bunch of your Christmas shopping done at the United Church of Underhill's second annual Alternative Gift Fair!

What is an alternative Gift Fair? It is a chance for you to
* Purchase fair trade gifts from around the world made by artisans and farmers who are paid fairly and treated with respect, providing the opportunity to break the cycle of poverty
* Support a number of local, national, and international nonprofit organizations by making contributions in honor of friends and family in lieu of a traditional holiday gift.

We will have gifts and honor cards from many of the local, national, and international organizations supported by the United Church of Underhill, including:
COTS (Committee on Temporary Shelter)
Church World Service
Dismas of Vermont
Essex-Jericho-Underhill Ecumenical Food Shelf
Green Mountain Habitat for Humanity
Re-Member
Gifts from around the world from SERRV.org
Equal Exchange coffee, tea, cocoa and chocolate

The Alternative Gift Fair on Sunday, December 4 from noon until 2:00PM at the United Church of Underhill (7 Park Street in Underhill). Don’t forget to bring your checkbooks! We hope to see you there!
