Global Exchange Turns 20! September 18, 2008

Celebrate Global Exchange's 20 Years of Resisting Injustice, Envisioning Alternatives & Taking Action!

Come party with a leading international human rights organization making significant contributions toward achieving a just, peaceful and sustainable world!

20 years ago our founders--a nutritionist, a welder and an academic--sat together on a red striped futon in Noe Valley and envisioned the future of Global Exchange. "We wanted to create and organization that would act as a catalyst to inspire people to get involved in the international movement," says co-founder Kirsten Moller.

Global Exchange has made great strides in transforming the global economy from profit-centered to people-centered--from currency to community. We are proud to have helped shut down the World Trade Organization in Seattle, won a $20 million sweatshop settlement against 26 major clothing retailers and organized the first-ever international observation of US elections.

Come celebrate! Enjoy dinner; dancing; a silent auction with art, green & fair trade goods and opportunities for adventure. Support the organization working arduously for the change you want to see in the world, and have a fantastic time doing it! We can't wait to celebrate our 20 years in the movement and all the common goals that bind us together.
