"Chocolate Doña Pancha Norte" VIP Tasting

Thursday, January 29th | 5:30-7:30 PM

North Central College | Larrance Academic Center | 309 E. School St., Naperville, IL

RSVP Here. (Donation suggested)

A chocolate-focused VIP fundraising event inspired by the visits we have with Mirna and her team when we are in Guatemala. These visits are always a highlight of our travels.  Your donation (all levels) allows access to this VIP tasting event. Please donate what you are able. Donations will be used to offset the expenses to bring Mirna to the United States. (Mirna will be participating alongside us at Morton Arboretum Chocolate weekend as well as speaking with classes here on campus during her visit to the US.)

Activities include a chocolate tasting, brief presentation, Q&A with Mirna, and plenty of networking. (This will be more of an open house format so you can come and go as your schedule allows. We will do a brief presentation and Q&A at 6:30 PM)
