Introducing Amy Kay Pavlovich, your BANK VI Hero of the Week!

Amy Kay was nominated for her efforts in bringing fair trade to Central Kansas and the Salina area.

Amy Kay is the owner of both Connected Fair Trade retail stores, one in Downtown Salina and one in Downtown Lindsborg.

Many of the products sold in her stores support women in other countries, often helping them get out of the sex trade. The sale of these products also assists farmers and Artisans in those countries provide education for their families.

Through her stores, Amy Kay spends a great deal of time educating Salina and the surrounding areas on what Fair Trade is and how important it is to the Artisans in other countries.
