Father’s Day Shopping—Fab Fair Trade Gifts for the Special Father

The ultimate holiday for Men as Fathers is coming up in 2015 on Sunday, June 21st. And as a special bonus, June 21st is also the summer solstice—with summer beginning on that day at 12:38 in the morning EDT and it is the longest day of the year, as in more daylight for fun times. What a glorious, long, summer day to celebrate our Fathers, Dads, Papas, Papis. The holiday was established to celebrate the deep, forming, bonding contribution fathers and father figures make in the lives of children.

So, you have time to shop for dad and find that perfect gift that tells him you think he’s the best father in the world and you love him for it. And you and he can feel good that these items are fair trade, socially conscious, eco friendly and contribute to an equitable economy. They’re also all handmade by caring artisans.

We’ve recently created a new catchall category on the Shopping for a Change site called Men’s Goods. Here, you’ll find everything from cuff links to computer cases to wallets to bracelets, shirts and travel weekender bags. And quite a few are now on sale too. Check ‘em out for dad.
