Divine Chocolate Giveaway


Share the Love with Divine Chocolate
Fair Trade Chocolate Giveaway


Thursday, October 29th
at Montgomery Street, 24th Street, Rockridge and Ashby Stations


Join the Bay Area Fair Trade Coalition and Divine Chocolate in Sharing the Love with afternoon BART riders and spreading the word about Fair Trade Month and our new campaigns to declare both Oakland and Berkeley a Fair Trade Town.

Divine Chocolate, owned by cocoa farmers and made for chocolate lovers, hopes that you are having a fantastic Fair Trade Month and is reaching out to commuters in San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley to say thank you to all their loyal customers.

Volunteers with the Bay Area Fair Trade Coalition will be handing out free samples of Divine Chocolate from 4-8 pm at Montgomery St. Station and from 5-7 pm at 24th Street, Rockridge and Ashby Stations.

We will also be tabling to share the Divine Chocolate story with commuters and encourage riders to choose Fair Trade Certified chocolate when they shop this Halloween. Along with the chocolate from Divine, volunteers will hand out a list of stores where folks can find Divine Chocolate in time to hand out at the door this Halloween.

Divine Chocolate is co-owned by the 45,000 farmers of Kuapa Kokoo in Ghana. Learn more about how your purchase of Divine Chocolate is helping farmers improve their communities and keep their kids in school in this cute animated video.





Looking to make the switch to Fair Trade Chocolate this Halloween? Share the love with friends, family and neighbors by buying Divine Chocolate to hand out at the door.
