Item Description

Who hasn’t enjoyed a bar of World’s Finest Chocolate? They’re the ones you schlepped around as a kid for those school fundraisers or purchased from your local church group to help fund after school activities. But little did you know, those candy bars you purchased to support your school or youth group may have come at the cost of another child’s education on one of the world’s cocoa farms.

 

Your Support Helps:

- Work with schools, churches and community groups from around the country to pressure World’s Finest to stay true to its fundraising legacy by purchasing at least five percent of its cocoa from fair trade cooperatives.

- To bring fair trade chocolate to all of the many schools and faith communities that have been learning problems of poverty and child labor in the chocolate industry and desperately want to do their part by selling fair trade chocolate in their fundraisers.
