Who We Are:
The Fair Trade Coffee Coalition at the University of Washington (FTCC) is an alliance of students, registered student organizations, faculty and staff members that seeks to promote the consumption of Fair Trade Certified coffee on the University of Washington campus and among members of the University community. Through public education, a positive message, a commitment to fairness in the global economy and collaborative action, the FTCC seeks to convert the University of Washington campus' coffee offerings to 100% Fair Trade Certified. Please contact us to learn how you and your community or organization can get involved in our campaign.
The Coalition meets at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesdays in various locations. Join our listserv to find out where the next meeting is, get more updates on our campaign, and learn about what you can do to get involved.
