Background & Resources
How could chocolate possibly be more delicious than it already is??

For now, chocolate is a bitter sweet…
  • 284,000 children toil in abusive labor conditions in West Africa’s cocoa fields
  • Cocoa companies pay prices so low that many cocoa farmers cannot meet their families’ basic needs
But we can fix all that...with Fair Trade certified chocolate:
  • Forced and abusive child labor are prohibited
  • Farming families earn a price that is adequate to meet their basic human needs
  • Environmentally sustainable production methods are required
Take Action
Online, in your own community, or even just when you’re buying chocolate!

If every single one of us takes just a minute or two for an online fax action or more time to take action in our communities, together we WILL end child slavery in the cocoa fields.
