„For every tea purchase, a Fair Trade premium goes directly back to the tea workers themselves. A committee, elected by the workers, decides how these funds will be used to meet the community's most serious needs. Tea workers have used Fair Trade premiums to hire school teachers, build maternal health clinics, and bring electricity to their villages, among other projects.“

„The Fair Trade movement started in the 1980s as a way to make life better for the farmers and workers who supply the world with tea, coffee, cacao, fruit and other commodities. Many of these farmers don't have enough money for life's basic necessities such as electricity, clean water, housing and medical care.“
