From Christmas carols on You Tube to Fair Trade chocolate treats at Halloween time, we spread the word throughout our LEED certified building here in Baltimore. We are especially proud, though, when staff members hear about Ambassadors because they take the initiative in building commitment to CRS programs beyond Fair Trade. Thanks to the efforts of Mathew George of Houston, TX the St. Vincent DePaul parish there was the second-highest contributor to Operation Rice Bowl in the diocese last year. Our Food Security colleagues are gearing up for Lent 2009 right now. Please join us!
