    I love shopping here! If you are looking for a unique gift to someone or for yourself you have to stop here. And the fact that our purchases help someone on another side of the world that we don't see makes me feel amazing, and considering that I was once a child of poverty I know that I'm reaching back to help someone else along the way. Unique items and the volunteers are so helpful and sweet.

    So friendly - so helpful - great gifts This store does not at all deserve the one star rating below. The 4 or 5 times I have come here to pick out some jewelry as a stocking stuffer or secondary gift for my girlfriend the volunteer staff has been awesome to me. One nice lady helped me for 15 minutes, picking out necklaces and earrings and showing them to me until we found the right one for my girl. This is a really cool store, especially for getting fairly priced, interesting jewelry.

    Interesting place to shop and you are helping people for a good cause with your purchase. Interesting home made goods that can be folk art. Good customer assistant and very friendly atmosphere.

    Its Oak Park, so mask up. This is a nice collection of products made by different crafts cooperatives throughout the world. The inventory has taken a hit during the pandemic, but there is still plenty to look at. It is a mini-feast for the senses: bright colors, scented soaps and many textures for art objects, table linens and apparel. Take a browse here and the other fine shops in Downtown Oak Park.

    Nice selection of jewelry, apparel, and interesting items for sale. The concept of fair trade empowering the producers of all items sold at least makes purchases seem productive. Additionally the sales people are always friendly and tolerant of children.

    Have a lot of good things. Very nice place to shop around. Non profit place is what they said.

    I love the jewelry section, and always find unique items for gifting or for my apartment. Not to mention it is a non-profit so you know your money is going to a good cause!
