Don't be Tricked by Your Treats!

October 31, 2009
On Halloween 2009, children across the US
and Canada
will unite to alleviate poverty among cocoa
farmers and end abusive child labor in the
cocoa industry by giving Fair Trade chocolate
back to adults while Trick-or-Treating in their
communities.
Reverse Trick-or-Treating transforms Halloween into a meaningful event when youth activists give back to their neighbors and to cocoa growing communities.
