Matthew 25 In Action : SERRV Shop at the Presbyterian Church in Geneva

SERRV is a nonprofit, fair trade and development organization sponsored by Church World Service.  With over 65 years of experience, SERRV’s mission is to eradicate poverty wherever it resides by providing opportunity and support, both financial and professional, to artisans and farmers worldwide.  SERRV supports equal rights and leadership development for women, encourages sustainable eco-friendly business practices, and, of course, pays a fair wage.

 

SERRV is a founding member of the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO) and the Fair Trade Federation (FTF).  Their values and ours align with the principles to which these organizations are committed.

 

  • Creating opportunity

  • Honest relationships

  • Community investment

  • Paying fairly and promptly

  • Preventing child exploitation

  • Women’s rights

  • Safe working conditions

  • Expanded market access

  • Mutual respect

  • Earth stewardship

 

 Our SERRV International Gift Shop is a mission project of The Presbyterian Church in Geneva that reflects our philosophy of the self-development of peoples as opposed to gift-centered mission. We are proud to be a part of SERRV International.  Not only are we able to assist people in some of the poorest countries in the world (and the United States!) we are able to direct our profits to our local community and our church as well as the world.  Find our more information on Facebook.
