Divine, indeed

Posted on 05. May, 2009 by in Uncategorized



It’s always a blessing to make connections with our partners from around the world. This time, they came to us –here I am in Washington, DC with three representatives from Kuapa Kokoo, in Ghana, who were in town for a meeting with Divine Chocolate. In case you haven’t heard about Divine yet, it’s one of the coolest companies out there — Fair Trade and farmer-owned. The farmers of Kuapa Kokoo grow all the cocoa that goes into Divine, and it’s the chocolate that we feature in the LWR Chocolate Project.
I hope you’ll try some for yourself, and I hope you’ll join us in our quest to raise $100,000 to help Divine expand into new markets in the U.S. The more demand we create for Divine Chocolate, the greater the benefits for the farmers of Kuapa Kokoo and their families. Click here to make a gift, and thanks!
Enjoy your chocolate ….

    Thanks for writing this and promoting Fair Trade. We're members of Redeemer Lutheran Church in Colorado and we write a family blog called the Five Hens and every Friday, we feature what we call our "Do Good" challenge. The challenges are something we can all do to help give back to our planet, our children, and each other. We urge all of our readers to get involved and “Do Good”.

    This week our "Do Good" Challenge asks everyone to Think about the products you eat and purchase and support those that are grown and harvested in sustainable ways. And look for the Rainforest Alliance Certified, Fair Trade Certified, or UTZ Certified seals on your future purchases.
