Just about everyone appreciates an occasional piece of chocolate. Now, even the most health conscious have a reason to indulge. There is solid scientific evidence that dark chocolate is filled with healthful antioxidants.
And, when you do take the plunge, consider buying a bar from Endangered Species Chocolate, a company that donates ten percent of its net profits “to help support species, habitat and humanity.”
Read what the company says on its website:
ESC confirms that all of our chocolate is created from ethically traded, shade grown cacao grown on small family-owned properties that support the habitats and communities in which they exist. In February 2006, four ESC team members traveled to the Ikom region of Nigeria where all of our all-natural cacao is harvested. While observing ethical trade in action, ESC sponsored the provision of school supplies for children and the installation of water pumps for two local villages. In 2007, ESC worked with Saro Agro Science to provide six scholarships to the top students in the Ikom region. The money was used to purchase schoolbooks, supplies and uniforms.
