  • all things chocolate!

  • collaboration opportunities

Chocolate Freedom Project

 

Goals of the Project:

  • raise awareness of child slave labor on West African cocoa farms, which are the start of the supply chain for big commercial chocolate brands,

  • highlight a multitude of delicious and ethical fair trade chocolate alternatives, and

  • speak at schools and organizations.

 

You can join the Chocolate Freedom Project from home, by pledging to take these 3 steps:

 

  1. Read. Look for an origin label on your chocolate.

  2. Shop. Buy fairtrade or craft / bean-to-bar chocolate.

  3. Share. Tell a friend, or book me for a talk to your group.

 

Please visit my Ethical Chocolate page to learn more about this important issue that affects all of us who love chocolate. And email me at chocolateuplift@gmail.com to let me know you've taken the pledge!

 

Onward and upward!

​

Your friend in chocolate,

Valerie
