Ten thousand villages of cincinnati is a charter of ten thousand villages. As one of the world's oldest and largest fair trade organizations, ten thousand villages has spent more than 60 years cultivating trading relationships in which artisans receive a fair price for their work and consumers have access to distinctive handcrafted items.
