About Equal Exchange Fundraising:
The Equal Exchange Organic & Fair Trade Fundraiser is perfect for the green family: Now a way to support your school AND your values!
The Equal Exchange Fundraiser allows schools and community groups to make money (40% profit), while benefiting small organic farmers and artisans around the globe. The fundraiser features organic and fairly traded coffees, teas, cocoas, nuts & berries, and handmade gift wrap (tree-free!) from Equal Exchange, and beautiful gifts for the home from Ten Thousand Villages (www.tenthousandvillages.com). The Equal Exchange Fundraiser works both as an event and/or catalog sale and is an easy way to both make money for the school, while reinforcing classroom values of social and environmental responsibility and global citizenship.
About the Prize:
Equal Exchange Organic & Fairly Traded Dark Chocolate Minis:
Equal Exchange’s Dark Chocolate (55%) Minis are wrapped individually and bite-sized, with approximately 150 minis per box. They’re ideal for stocking stuffers, Chanukah gelt or a holiday party. Keep a stash of these in your desk at work, savor them through the afternoon.
My Thoughts:
Equal Exchange sent me their chocolate minis to try, and they are indeed delicious. Not only that, but healthful as well. I fully support using a fundraiser to not only help a school/organization, but also farmers that are making a difference in our world by growing organic, fair-trade chocolate. See more details on how you can start a fundraiser here.

I am a huge proponent of Fair Trade, and I love that Equal Exchange is based on the concept that the workers who harvest the bases for the products deserve to be fairly compensated for their work. I always purchase Equal Exchange coffees at my local grocery store, and I’m glad of this reminder that they do fundraisers, as my son goes to a wonderful charter school that could surely use good fundraising ideas like this.
