On May 10, seven Vancouver master chocolatiers will show the best of their chocolate craft, while raising funds for local children’s meal charities. In the past five years, the Chocolate Challenge has raised $84,000 for the children in need.

The proceeds from this year’s initiative will go to three Vancouver-based children’s meal charities: The Vancouver Firefighter Charities Snacks for Kids, Project Chef and The Strathcona Backpack Program.
