Dear Friends of New Traditions
New Traditions Fair Trade is seeking donations of any size to allow us to continue to serve you and to keep this magical place alive while we all practice the social distancing that will preserve the health and well being of our local and global communities.
We are asking for donations to support our laid off employees, to pay our rent, to pay our suppliers who are mostly 1-2 person businesses from other countries, to pay off loans that have supported us, and to keep up the work of creating intentional and conscientious community. We want to stay afloat in this urgent time of need and still have the resources to reopen when the tides change.
If you would like to be a part of New Traditions continuing then go to this link: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-new-traditions-through-this-tough-time.
Please know that we will do everything we can to reopen and recreate, with you, the community that supports so much in Olympia and in many places around the world.
In peace,
Jody, Stacy and the New Traditions staff
