You know that warm, fuzzy feeling you get when you give someone a special gift? It's like your heart just swells up with joy. But here's the thing—when that gift also helps empower women or support women-led businesses, that feeling multiplies. It's like giving double the love.
This holiday season, if you're looking for ways to not only spread joy but also lift up women and celebrate their incredible entrepreneurial spirit all around the globe, you've come to the right place. Let's dive into some meaningful ways to give and gift with purpose.
Empowering Women in Côte d’Ivoire Through Chocolate
For the past five years, DOVE Chocolate has teamed up with the humanitarian organization CARE to empower women in Côte d’Ivoire, where a whopping 40% of the world’s cocoa is produced. This partnership has been life-changing for so many women. In October 2019, a brand-new marketplace was opened, thanks to DOVE Chocolate and CARE. This marketplace isn’t just any old building—it’s equipped with state-of-the-art facilities that allow women to run their small businesses more efficiently and effectively.

But the work doesn’t stop there. This year, DOVE Chocolate and CARE are continuing their mission by funding Village Savings & Loan Association (VSLA) programs. These programs are all about equipping women throughout Côte d’Ivoire with the financial skills and capital they need to grow and thrive in their businesses. It’s not just about giving them a handout—it’s about giving them the tools to succeed on their own terms.
Here’s the cherry on top: starting November 13, every time you purchase a 150-piece bag of DOVE Chocolate PROMISES online through Amazon, DOVE Chocolate will donate $5.00 to CARE. This generous donation will continue until they hit the $300,000 mark or until December 31, 2020. So, not only are you treating yourself or someone special to some delicious chocolate, but you're also making a real difference in the lives of women in Côte d’Ivoire.
