February '09- The U.S. alone spends $1 billion dollars on chocolate each year for Valentines Day and it is estimated that 40% of the worlds cocoa is provided through child slave labor. Fortunately though, there are certain chocolate brands that are “fair
trade” and have guaranteed to utilize no slave labor during the process
of cultivating and producing their chocolate. In light of this The Love Alliance community chose to be responsible chocolate eaters and only eat and buy fair trade chocolate.

October '08- In recognition of Fair Trade month, The Love Alliance community found one item they regularly use and found a fair trade alternative for it. The goal of this month was to educate ourselves and our community on the availability of fair trade alternatives.

March '08- In recognition of World Woman's Day, The Love Alliance community through out the world wrote their government leaders making them aware of modern day slavery within their countries borders. Being that this is an issue that greatly effects women and children, we felt this was an ideal time to raise awareness for this issue. Over and over we received reports from individuals within the T.L.A. community stating that they had heard back from their representative through email and some through telephone encouraging them that their letters of concern were heard and that they will do anything they can to positively effect this issue.
