Meet PJT

Partners for Just Trade is committed to a holistic approach to fair trade. For us, it goes beyond ensuring fair wages and healthy, safe work conditions. It includes our long-term partnerships with artisans in Peru, Haiti, and Cambodia to help grow their businesses and strengthen their communities. You can be part of the change.

PJT is a non-profit, faith-based organization that builds partnerships between producers living in extreme poverty and consumers in North America.  We address root causes of poverty through education, Fair Trade sales, solidarity, and a commitment to trade justice.

PJT works with our partners to:

  • Respect the traditions and cultural identity of all people
  • Educate consumers on issues of justice and environmental and social responsibility in global trade
  • Educate producers about quality production, economic development, democratic and cooperative management, small business development and environmental responsibility
  • Create, expand and sustain economic opportunities for fairly-traded goods produced by marginalized people
