About the Chocolate Festival
The Austin Chocolate Festival benefits Susan G. Komen For the Cure. The Annual Chocolate Festival has already raised over $5,000 for the Austin Affiliate of Susan G. Komen. With the support of the community and small businesses we hope to raise at least twice that at the 4th Annual Austin Chocolate Festival in 2009. There are several ways you can contribute besides attending the festival. We have sponsorship and volunteer opportunities available. If you would like to sponsor the festival or volunteer for the Austin Chocolate Festival please use the contact us form on the navigation to the right.
