Fair Friday: A Friday That Makes a Difference

3. November 2026|In News
Slogan: Fair Friday, not Black Friday!

Black Friday is all about shopping and consumerism. Special deals here and there tempting us to things we didn’t even know we needed yesterday. Originally from the US, Black Friday has long since become one of the biggest shopping days of the year in Germany, too.

This year, we want to use Black Friday as an opportunity to shift our focus to something else. Instead of asking how much we can save, let’s think about what we can achieve together.

That’s why we are turning Black Friday into Fair Friday.

Small Contributions, Big Impact

With Fair Friday we want to show that this day can be about more than shopping and discounts. Together with cafes, bakeries, concept stores, and other local businesses in Germany, we’re turning a day full of discounts into a day of giving, sharing and making a positive impact.

The idea is simple: Participating businesses and partners donate a portion of their sales to Fairventures, whether it’s a percentage of their choice, the proceeds from a selected product or a fixed amount.

This way, your morning coffee or your new favorite item from the store around the corner can make a real difference. Starting with 5€ you can make it possible to distribute high-quality Seedlings and maintain ongoing contact with local Farmers in Uganda and Indonesia.

Your contribution supports our work in Uganda and Indonesia, where we work hand in hand with local farmers to plant trees, restore degraded land and create opportunities for sustainable, long-term income Just €5 makes it possible to distribute one high-quality seedling and maintain regular contact with the farmers who grow and care for the trees..

Be Part of Our Fair Friday! 

You don’t have to own a café or a shop to get involved. Fair Friday is all about everyone who wants to make a difference. Perhaps you could donate the amount you would otherwise have spent on an impulse Black Friday purchase. Or simply tell others about Fair Friday and encourage them to join in.

We want to show that there’s another way. Black Friday may be over in just one day, but the positive impact we create together can keep growing long afterwards.
