Chicago Fair Trade, a nonprofit working tirelessly to promote fair trade and a shared vision for justice and equity, is gearing up for our 17th annual fundraiser and THE party of the year: Globalfest, which will be held on Saturday, February 1, 2025 from 6p – 10p at the beautiful and historic Newberry Library.
What is Globalfest?
A celebration of fair trade and our collective successes at our annual fundraiser – THE premier fair trade party of the year!
Each year, over 200 of our biggest fair trade supports gather to celebrate the power of fair trade and Chicago’s leading role in the fair trade movement.
Event highlights include a fabulous silent auction, presentation of our Changemaker Award, global food, drinks, dancing, and loads of mingling. It’s a joyous night of celebration

We hope you will be a part of this exciting evening by becoming a fiscal sponsor and are deeply grateful for your support if you are able to contribute.
Sponsoring Globalfest is an effective way to reach a large audience of educated, articulate, socially conscious consumers, and show that your business is committed to the wellbeing of people and the planet. Fair trade supports an alternative business model focusing on a triple bottom line: people, planet, and profits. Let’s work together to grow our consumer outreach and expand business for good, spreading awareness about the fair trade principles of environmental sustainability, ethical production methods, fair wages, and safe working conditions, which are more critical now than ever.
We greatly appreciate your commitment to fair trade and are looking forward to putting together the perfect sponsorship package for you! Please review the sponsorship levels below and email info@chicagofairtrade.org with any questions.
Thank you for considering!
With gratitude,
Chicago Fair Trade
