The Week of Chocolate

Every year, Options hosts the Week of Chocolate, which includes Options' signature fundraising event, Chocolate Fest. Each year Options' goal is to raise more money for customers' services, and to raise more awareness about the valuable services the agency provides within communities. Last year, Options raised almost $34,000 with the Second Annual Art of Chocolate and the Ninth Annual Chocolate Fest. This year, the Week of Chocolate was held January 26, 2008 - February 2, 2008.
