Charitable Gift Giving

Here’s a great holiday gift idea from a site “Lesley’s Life Is Sweet”, which Lucy submitted a comment about last month.

This is a site that sells artisanal chocolates, where 20% of the proceeds go to charity. The item you see to the right is their box of holiday chocolates, where the proceeds will go to humanitarian organizations such as Heifer International, Kids Are Sweet International and the Cambodian Children’s Fund. If you look around the site, you’ll see other chocolates which can be donated to organizations like the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, America’s Second Harvest, the Heifer Foundation, and many more which you can choose from at checkout.

The founder, Leslie Byrne, is a truly inspirational person who in addition to founding the chocolate company has founded non-profit organizations to help impoverished children in Southeast Asia and Africa (Kids Are Sweet International),

The quality of the chocolates are top-notch. Lucy mentioned that this was the first all female company to get a USDA certified organic line…and that the chocolates were “absolutely delicious!!”
