Lutheran World Relief partners with SERRV to bring Fair Trade chocolate and handcrafts to our supporters and supporters of Fair Trade.

A nonprofit organization, SERRV’s mission is to eradicate poverty wherever it resides by providing opportunity and support to artisans and farmers worldwide.

SERRV donates 7.5% of annual handcraft sales and 4% of annual Divine Chocolate (and other food) sales to Lutheran World Relief to support our partners and projects overseas. Since 1999, these donations have added up to more than $450,000!
