READ MORE ABOUT:
We already love eBay's World of Good marketplace—it has created a venue to browse and buy thousands of products made by small, eco-friendly artisans who are paid a living wage for their work.
From placemats made in southeast Asia from recycled rice bags to gorgeous women's handbags made from water hyacinth, there is something here for everyone—and as with most fair trade products, they have way more class and character than what you'll find in any shopping mall, and they definitely benefit communities way more than shopping malls do.
But WorldofGood.ebay.com just got even better. Until October 15, you can enter to join the Journey for Good trip to Guatemala.
They'll visit communities in Guatemala and meet with human rights, labor, women’s rights and sustainable farming activists.
They'll also meet local artisans and some of the groups behind goods seen at WorldofGood. Learn more on the site, and if you're already looking for a treat for yourself or a loved one, check out the marketplace—with more than 25,000 products to choose from, you're sure to find something you love.
