Picture
Montezuma’s is an award winning British chocolate company founded by ex-lawyers turned chocolate entrepreneurs, Helen and Simon Pattinson. The company aims to produce the highest quality organic and “Traded Fairly” chocolate whilst minimising any environmental impact.

Montezuma’s has an ongoing partnership with Children on the Edge that incorporates a variety of fundraising ideas. In-store, they run the 'bags of cash scheme' where customers are asked to donate 5p for every carrier bag they use when making purchases. This has been a fantastic success with over £10,000 raised in a year from five stores.  The highest single donation was £1,000 after a very kind gentleman visited the Chichester store and talked with a very passionate member of staff! For eight years, Montezuma's were also one of our headline sponsors for our flagship running event, the Chichester Half Marathon. 

Staff from Montezuma's have visited some of our projects and seen the impact their fundraising can have. Demelza visited our Child Friendly Space in Moldova and said:

"It was the most humbling experience of my life to date – a truly inspirational place where children can simply ‘be’ children, forgetting their difficult and troubled home lives if only for a few hours a day. The staff at the centre are all remarkably selfless and are a great mentors and examples of how it is always possible to turn a bad situation around"

“For us, Children on the Edge is 
the most efficient and effective charity we have had the pleasure 
of working with.”
