According to statistics, seventy percent of the world's 1.3 billion poor, surviving on less than a $1 a day, are women. Fair Trade directly benefits women by allowing them the opportunity to work while tending to their daily tasks. Women in developing countries work an average of 60-90 hours a week, which is usually unpaid and involves child care, cleaning, cooking, and agricultural labor. When women have the opportunity to earn an income, they gain increased control over their family's spending priorities.
