Ten Thousand Villages Craft Sale

A tradition for more than 10 years, Barrington United Methodist Church’s support of Ten Thousand Villages provides vital and fair income to the people of developing nations by marketing their handicrafts and telling their stories. Ten Thousand Villages establishes a sustainable market for their hand crafted products from which the income helps pay for food, education, health care and housing. Ten Thousand Villages is a founding member of the WFTO- the World Fair Trade Organization, a global network of more than 350 trade organizations in 70 countries.

Barrington United Methodist Church hosts a craft sale on-site during the Christmas season which gives congregational members and visitors the opportunity to purchase items made by artisans from around the world. For more information, please visit the Ten Thousand Villages web site.
