ABOUT THE PURPOSE
Famous for its iconic flora and fauna, the Galapagos Islands are located just 600 miles off the west coast of South America. These tropical islands are home to many beautiful birds, including (who knew?) penguins! However, things are not looking too bright for these sweet penguins. According to scientists, there are fewer than 2000 mature Galapagos penguins left in the wild, and the species is considered endangered by the IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature). MarcieSweets wants to help brighten the future for the Galapagos penguin and other endangered penguin species, so we started the CHOCOLATES FOR A PURPOSE packages. In true penguin fashion, two varieties are currently available - one dark (Peruvian Dark Chocolate) and one white (Vegan White Baking Chips). Five percent of net profits from the sale of these bags are donated to groups helping to protect these amazing birds.
