Today is #WorldValuesDay & the theme is values for community.
Thank you to our community of investors who support us in delivering our mission to provide financial services to make livelihoods & living standards better for people as they trade their way out of poverty.
At COOPARM some of the #FairtradePremium is given to the Women’s Committee.
President Elizabeth said: “I encourage all women to prepare for big goals and have confidence to achieve them, you would be amazed at the times this combination works miracles.” #InternationalCoffeeDay

Happy #WorldChocolateDay! By choosing to celebrate with a bar of #Fairtrade chocolate you are supporting cocoa farmers to receive a fairer price for their cocoa, like Grace in Ghana who participated in our #GrowingFairerFutures project🌱🍫
In rural w. Africa, shea provides an opportunity for women to earn an income by processing the nuts into higher value products like butter.

'It has been good to feel that I am helping further Shared Interest's aims and activities. On a personal note, it has helped me keep up and, where grammar is concerned, refresh my language skills' - how volunteering makes @SharedInterest volunteers feel #Vol4All
Todays’ Volunteer Festival themes are: our approach to #ethical storytelling, how we report our impact and tips for delivering a smashing PowerPoint. Volunteers play vital roles in enabling us to share our story and in gathering the content to demonstrate our impact too
As #VolunteersWeek draws to a close we leave the last word to Bill who has been volunteering with @SharedInterest for nearly ten years. He has delivered presentations to local campaign groups, financial advisors and Rotary clubs #Vol4All
It may well be the last day of #VolunteersWeek today but it is the first day of our Volunteer Festival! Woop, we’ve got sessions on everything from wellbeing to East Africa to reporting our impact.
'...I'm using my skills and experience and doing something positive to help others. I also like being able to undertake voluntary work together with my husband.' @SharedInterest volunteer #Vol4All
