As people across the country celebrate Valentine's Day, child and trafficked labor continues on cocoa farms in West Africa.  Today, the International Labor Rights Forum released a brand new chocolate company scorecard ranking companies based on their commitment to ending child labor and ensuring transparency in their supply chains.  Check it out here!

Three companies stood out as the most "bitter" when it came to worker rights: Hershey, M&M/Mars and Nestle.  Since 2001, we have heard the same talking points from major chocolate companies about what they are doing about child labor, but the practice still continues.  Please join us today in getting beyond the talking points and asking Hershey, M&M/Mars and Nestle what each company is doing specifically to ensure they are respecting internationally recognized labor rights in their cocoa sourcing.
