About Us
Fair World Treasures was
started as a way to sell fair trade products directly to consumers
in the US. Tony Devassy and his wife, Elsy Devassy, M.D., were
born and raised in India and have formed close relationships with
many artisan groups during their frequent travels there. Tony has
been President of Care & Share, the charity he started, for
over 20 years. As a way to raise additional funds to support Care
& Share, the Devassys thought it would be a wonderful
idea to start a fair trade company, where they could simultaneously help the
artisan groups and support Care &
Share.
Care & Share is an international 501(c)3 charity
which supports many of our artisan groups, as well as poor and
underprivileged around the world. Over the years, Care & Share
has reached out to North America, South America, Africa, and Asia.
$0.96 out of every $1.00 donated to Care & Share goes directly
into the hands of the most deserving people. You can learn more
about this charity at www.careandshare.com. Tony and Elsy are so proud
to be sharing these fair trade products with you and hope you will
take pride in purchasing the artisans’
handiwork.
