Tsirü Alá Chocolate Tour

The donation will support the new water system at the chocolate farm for improvement of the quality of water supplied to visitors and to the family.

Fulvia, member of Tsiru Alá, participated in the inaugural annual gathering of projects funded by V Social in Colombia in November. During this event, 16 projects hailing from various corners of Latin America convened in person to engage in discussions about lessons learned and to strategize for the upcoming year, 2024.

Our primary goal was to empower the beneficiaries with a more influential role in decision-making within V Social, allowing them to shape the organization's priorities and focus areas. This approach placed a greater emphasis on the voices of those we serve. Notably, for many participants, this event marks their first opportunity to travel outside their home country, adding an extra layer of significance to this transformative gathering.

The allocated amount for this support is an estimate derived from the total costs incurred in organizing the gathering.

We finance transport, food, lodging and tours for 2 members of our project at Talamanca. From the 26th of January to the 30th of January. Through this experience Fulvia and Lukas learned new ideas, creations, concepts, details, and very valuable information regarding all the chocolate experiences we had. They also learned about medicinal plants. From this experience we expect improvements in the traveler's experience in the field, more attractive activities, and fun proposals. We will continue working on caramelized chocolate nips, improve product presentation and quality. Also, about branding and product quality, and agroforestry and crop diversification.
