🍫 One ticket. Three local nonprofits. Countless lives impacted. 💜

The Newburyport Chocolate Tour is about so much more than chocolate. Each year, this community comes together to support incredible local organizations doing meaningful work right here in and around Newburyport.

This year, proceeds from the Chocolate Tour will support:

💜 Community Service of Newburyport — helping local individuals and families with food, resources, housing support, and compassionate care.
💚 Greenstone Gives — supporting children and families facing health and financial challenges through extracurricular opportunities, social-emotional support, and community connections.
💜 The General Charitable Society of Newburyport — continuing a tradition of helping Newburyport neighbors in need that dates back to 1850.

Every ticket purchased helps us eat chocolate, be happy & do good. 🍫✨
