Three schoolgirls walk along a path near Andes, Antioquia. All three are carrying student backpacks provided by the coop to any member who has a family member studying. The backpacks include stationery items. The provision of the student backpacks has reduced the rate of student dropout in rural areas, as many families are so poor they cannot pay for the school basics themselves. The Fairtrade premium is used to pay for around 3,500 student backpacks each year.
