high profile design opportunity for a great cause
June 25, 2009
Designers…
Here is a fantastic opportunity to help a truly great cause with a logo for a high profile, national campaign.
Your logo design could become the face of the fair trade movement for years to come.
Fair Trade Towns, USA is a national campaign to build a strong, broad-based consumer demand for Fair Trade products and businesses. It is a community-based organizing campaign designed to provide the organizing resources to local activists to get their town or city officially declared a “Fair Trade Town”.
The aim is for this designation to provide a platform for long-term campaign activity to raise awareness and demand for Fair Trade, thereby facilitating life-changing benefits for impoverished farmers and workers across Africa, Asia and Latin America.
So read the brief carefully:

Good Luck!

Maintenance period for faster emails
June 2, 2009
From the department of small but nice improvements…
In the past, there’s been a minute or two delay in us sending you emails to let you know what’s going on. We don’t like keeping you waiting so after a short period of maintenance, we’ll be sending out emails instantly – no more delays.
UPDATE: we’re back online with speedy email delivery, after a very brief maintenance period of a couple of minutes.
