The group has been working hard over the past few years towards achieving Calgary’s Fair Trade Town designation. Erin is also an Executive Board member of the Canadian Fair Trade Network and volunteers with Fashion Revolution YYC, Circular Economy Club Calgary, and Calgary Alliance for the Common Good. Erin’s hobbies include cooking with Fairtrade ingredients, dancing in Fairtrade banana costumes, and she also enjoys reading while drinking Fairtrade tea and relaxing with family and friends.
