If you are looking for an extra special gift that blesses several people, not just the receiver, check out Fair Trade Sports. Scott James is a close friend from college and we just connected again in person when he was in Waco speaking at our alma mater, Baylor University.

Fair Trade Sports sells sports balls that are made overseas, but rather than taking advantage of cheap child labor, they pay adult workers a fair wage to manufacture the balls.

I just got my oldest son the Fair Trade Match quality soccer ball in orange and he loves it. He is already asking when soccer season starts again.

The soccer balls prices are comparable to what you find at the retail department stores and more of the money actually goes to those who have labored to make the balls.
