Our mission is to advance the quality of life in our communities, across all cultures, generations and tastes, through preserving, advancing and utilizing incredibly rich and diverse regional musical heritage and resources. We strive to help young people from all walks of life, cultures and musical interests reach their potential and improve both their lives and the richness of life in our community through music.

TEN THOUSAND VILLAGE NATIONAL CAPITAL AREA INC
The Ten Thousand Villages store in Alexandria has been a fixture in Old Town since 1994, and our loyal customers have made us one of the most successful stores in the country, thus ensuring steady income and better lives for hundreds of artisans in the developing world.

We completed a successful campaign and Alexandria became the first Fair Trade Town in Virginia as well as in the DC metro region. And, even more exciting, we are currently raising money to establish a second store in the District of Columbia! None of our success would be possible without the support of customers who are equally as passionate about fair trade, and we welcome each and every one of you to our store to see what fair trade can do. Come browse our aisles of handcrafted home accents, table and bed linens, jewelry and personal accessories, garden planters and decor, wooden toys, musical instruments, and so much more, all to the global soundtrack of Putumayo CDs and the aroma of Fair Trade coffee and chocolate.
