Chocolates for Charity!

UPDATE: CHOCOLATES ARE SOLD OUT!!

Thirty boxes were claimed in just eight hours – a new record. Including matching funds, the campaign raised $6300 for the American Textile History Museum. Thank you for supporting the ATHM!

Doing my annual Chocolates for Charity campaign a bit early this year, as the American Textile History Museum (this year’s beneficiary) is having a matching campaign drive that ends June 30.

So….if you would like a box of this year’s chocolates (to be delivered in late November/early December, usually the week after Thanksgiving), please donate $100 or more to the American Textile History Museum here: http://www.athm.org/join-support/giving-to-athm/donate/ . I’ll send out one box for every $100 donated, e.g. $200 nets you two boxes, $300 gets you three boxes, etc.

This year’s limit is 30 boxes, and I usually sell out within 24-48 hours, so don’t wait!

(The flavor lineup changes from year to year, but the flavor list/photos from last year can be found here:
www.tienchiu.com/2014/11/presenting-the-2014-fall-collection/. Photos and a bit more exposition on my Chocolates Page.)

When donating, please put “Chocolates for Charity” in the notes/comment box so we can keep track of how much money was raised. Send me (tien @ tienchiu.com – remove the spaces before sending) a copy of the donation receipt along with the address where you’d like your chocolates shipped, and I’ll add you to the list.

I’ll take down this blog post when all the chocolates are claimed.

Thank you all for supporting the American Textile History Museum!
