Event Description: Beat the rush and get your holiday shopping done early on Thursday, October 15th at Ten Thousand Villages in The Avenue Forsyth. Ten Thousand Villages will donate 10% of the net sales that day to Habitat for Humanity - North Central Georgia, helping Habitat build more homes for deserving families in our community. Ten Thousand Villages is an exceptional source for unique, handmade gifts, jewelry, home decor and personal accessories representing the diverse cultures of artisans in Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East. Habitat representatives will be in the store that day. Stop in, say hello, and pick up a beautiful, distinctive item for yourself or a loved one. Ten Thousand Villages is one of the world's largest fair trade organizations and a founding member of the International Fair Trade Association (IFAT), the company strives to improve the livelihood of tens of thousands of disadvantaged artisans in 38 countries. Ten Thousand Villages accomplishes this by establishing a sustainable market for handmade products in North America, and building long term buying relationships in places where skilled artisan partners lack opportunities for stable income. Product sales help pay for food, education, healthcare and housing for artisans who would otherwise be unemployed or underemployed.
