Community Corner
Community Shopping Event to Benefit Equi-librium
For more than sixty years, Ten Thousand Villages has been a leading retailer of fair trade home accents and personal accessories - all handcrafted by artisans in developing countries. Lehigh Valley residents can make socially and environmentally responsible purchases by visiting the company's location in the Outdoor Shops of the Lehigh Valley Mall, just across the parking lot from the Apple store.
Shop during a Community Shopping Event, you're not only helping the artisans who crafted your purchases - you're also donating to a local non-profit! Visit the store on Sunday, November 10th, from 12 to 4 pm to benefit the work of Equi-librium. They provide therapy for adults and children with special needs by engaging them in riding, grooming, and other horse-related activities. During this event you can get to know more about them and their work, enjoy themed refreshments, and will have a chance to win gift certificates from various friends of Equi-librium...PLUS Ten Thousand Villages will donate 15% of all purchases made during this event to the work of Equi-librium! (Artisans have been paid in full.)
