Since ChocolaTas was established, we have worked with a wide variety of charitable organizations to help sponsor their fundraising initiatives, which in turn help foster or perpetuate our corporate ideals.
We receive hundreds of requests for community support from a wide range of organizations each year. In order for us to support as many deserving community groups as possible and to better understand our community’s needs, we ask that you read our criteria for community sponsorship below, and if you qualify, send us an email with full details of your organization, event, goals and contact info to wim@chocolatas.com .
We will only reply to your email if we are able to support your cause. Please note that we are unable to accept any applications in the months of October - December. Thank you for your understanding.
