On December 2, CREATE! hosted a holiday fair trade event as a fundraiser at Mosaic Fair Trade Collection in Downtown Eugene. About 40 local CREATE! supporters enjoyed wine and cheese while they shopped for holiday gifts made by international fair trade artisans. Mosaic donated 20% of all sales to CREATE! at the end of the evening.

Thanks to Mosaic Fair Trade Collection and Eugene-area CREATE! supporters for their donations. Also thanks to local stores Sundance Natural Foods, Kiva Grocery, and Capella Market for their donations of wine and cheese.
