Fair Trade Sports isn’t your average sporting goods company. That’s because all after-tax profits go to benefit children’s charities, and all of their items are–you guessed it–fair trade. That means the workers are paid a fair wage, and Fair Trade Sports manages to do that without passing the extra cost on to you. What’s more, the workers are all adults. No child labor here! No, the children need only play, and that will be a lot more fun with a mini-soccer ball. This and all other products at Fair Trade Sports are eco-certified, union made, and vegan. Which is a relief, because I saw a soccer ball eating a steak last week, and it was very disturbing. What’s that? Oh, they’re not made with animal products? Now, that makes sense!
Fair Trade Sports is giving away one mini-soccer ball ($14.99 retail), which is a fun size for kids. It has a 6″ diameter, so it’s a little more manageable for younger players. If you’d like to win one for your little Ronaldinho, read on!

Great article. There’s a lot of good info here, though I did want to let you know something – I am running Fedora with the current beta of Firefox, and the layout of your blog is kind of flaky for me. I can understand the articles, but the navigation doesn’t work so good.
