Here is a real win-win opportunity to help Rescue Dogs and other animals in distress while satisfying that urge most of us have for chocloate. Sarah Gross, proprietor of Rescue Chocolate was kind enough to post on my blog recently and she introduced me to her wonderful organization. I urge you to go to her site and give her treats a try. I know I will.
Rescue Chocolate’s motto is “the sweetest way to save a life.” That’s because we donate all of our profits to various animal rescue organizations. So far, our beneficiaries have included United Animal Nations, the No-Kill Advocacy Center, In Defense of Animals, Farm Sanctuary, a couple of local SPCAs, and many others.

So the animals benefit, but people do too because Rescue Chocolate is vegan, kosher, handcrafted in Brooklyn using the traditional techniques of Belgian chocolatiers, and packaged in eco-friendly materials. And, of course, it is delicious!
At the moment we offer 5 flavors of chocolate bars. Each one is named after an issue important in the rescue world:
- Peanut Butter Pit Bull (lobbying against breed-specific legislation)
- Pick Me! Pepper (urging people to patronize shelters rather than pet stores or breeders)
- Foster-iffic Peppermint (touting the benefits of becoming a foster parent for a homeless animal)
- Mission Feral Fig (highlighting the humane management of feral cat colonies)
- The Fix (pushing spay/neuter as the surest way to combat pet overpopulation)
And, since it’s hot out there, we also have non-melting products such as leashes, tee shirts, and gift certificates.
Rescue Chocolate was founded in January 2010. It is carried in a number of retail outlets around the country, and can also be ordered online RescueChocolate.com.
Best,
