Big chocolate companies such as Nestle and Mars have amazing chocolate, but have you ever thought about where this chocolate comes from? These companies get the cocoa beans needed for chocolate from kids in Africa who work in harsh weather conditions to harvest the cocoa beans without a living wage. These kids are working in these conditions for either little or no pay. And big chocolate companies get their chocolate from these kids being paid nothing and they sell it for a living profit. Not all hope is lost, for there is a way to fix this. It is called fair trade chocolate. Fair trade chocolate is chocolate that is made from the cocoa beans which are harvested by adults that get paid a living wage. With this petition, we wish to spread the word about this issue of child labor and hope to abolish it completely. Each signature counts so don't forget to ask your friends to help out too!
