Get Divine at Your Local Supermarket

You can customize this letter, perhaps adding the manager’s name (if you know it), or use it as is. The sample refers specifically to LWR’s Fair Trade partners Divine Chocolate and Equal Exchange, but if you have a favorite Fair Trade brand, you can modify the letter to request a different brand.

Pick one of your local grocery stores and have people in your congregation collect their receipts from that store for one month. Total those receipts to highlight your buying power when writing or talking to the store manager.
