At the age of 6 living in Africa, me and my late older brother talked about attending school, but the reality of poverty kept that dream just out of reach. We would go to the market to sell food items to try and generate money for both feeding and school. I believe that in life, we are born and called to serve a purpose. My late brother served in The U.S Army, even though he is no longer here with me, he always found a way to put a smile on my face when we were little.

Behind every chocolate bar lies a story, but not all are sweetApproximately 70% of the world's cocoa beans are harvested from countries in West Africa, and cocoa bean farm owners often resort to employing child labor because they cannot afford to hire adult laborers. This perpetuates a cycle of poverty, depriving children of their right to education and a safe childhood. Your support is crucial in breaking this cycle. Together, we can provide sustainable solutions that empower communities, uplift families, and ensure that children are not exploited for profit. Join us in our mission to end child labor on cocoa bean farms and create a future where every child's potential can flourish.
