Sharing the Dream in Guatemala is a non-profit organization that promotes fair trade with cooperatives and small businesses in Guatemala. Sharing the Dream is working very hard so that through their work, families can afford to educate their children, provide health care, and promote healthy living in their own families.
In late June 2010, Sharing the Dream hosted a group that spent 10 days in Sololá studying fair trade and sustainability. The group visited numerous artisan cooperatives including the women of Flor de Campo who create beautiful weavings, and ARTESA, craftsmen that make three dimensional wooden carvings with small drawers hidden inside. To read more about their trip, read the group’s travel journals at Sharing the Dream’s website.
