Tim Newman, Campaigns Assistant, International Labor Rights Forum
This year, children across the United State will be reversing the Halloween tradition by handing Fair Trade chocolate back to adults while Trick-or-Treating door-to-door on Halloween! The candy will be accompanied by information about social justice issues in the chocolate industry, and how Fair Trade chocolate provides a solution to these concerns.
Join us, and
together, we will inform tens of thousands of
households!
Sign up to go "Reverse Trick-or-Treating" here! (Make sure to note in the online form that you are working with the International Labor Rights Forum)
Keep reading for more Halloween ideas!

*Order Fair Trade chocolate:
Hand out fair trade treats to the kids in your neighborhood this
Halloween. Check out Equal
Exchange, Global Exchange, Divine
Chocolate, and Sweet Earth Organic
Chocolates to get your
goodies in time for the big night.
*Order our cocoa campaign posters: Check out our child labor campaign posters and our cocoa campaign action kit. If you order your posters now, you can put them on your door for Halloween to spread the word.
*Sign on to the Ethical Cocoa Sourcing statement: Over 40 organizations and fair trade companies, including the International Labor Rights Forum, have endorsed a statement on ethical cocoa sourcing. You can read the statement here! Contact Tim (tim.newman[at]ilrf.org, 202-347-4100) to add your organization or company to the list!
