Partners in Health, a non-profit organization operating out of Boston, Massachusetts, has put together a terrific website devoted to their relief work in Haiti. For over 20 years Partners in Health has been in Haiti, helping the people and building a better future. They were there when the recent earthquake first devastated Port Au Prince, and they will continue to be there long in to the future. They are a terrific organization that Badger is very proud to support. If you are looking to help the people of Haiti, consider giving through Partners in Health.

Greetings!
Finally, all of the holiday sweets are out of the house... just in time for another bundle on Valentine's day! Well, this year, why not treat your body to delicious, Fair Trade cocoa butter products instead? You get that wonderful chocolatey smell, super soft skin, and that nice warm feeling knowing that these products make a difference in the lives of cocoa farmers and their families. And, because they're USDA Certified Organic, they are actually good for you! Read on to learn about some of the benefits of using cocoa butter, and treat yourself and your sweetie to some "chocolate" this year!
Warmly,
Jentri
(for the Badgers!)

The Ultimate Moisturizer
Highly Concentrated
& Readily Absorbed by Skin
Cocoa Butter, in addition to being the basis for both milk and white chocolate, has been used for centuries to nourish and protect all skin types. It stays solid at room temperature but melts easily on to the skin, releasing a subtle dark-chocolate scent. Cocoa butter helps the body to retain its own natural moisture while creating a barrier between the skin and the elements. Most commonly it is used to prevent stretch marks, but it is also highly recommended for extremely dry skin conditions to keep skin supple, moisturized and revitalized.

 Boost Immunity
& Relieve Stress
Cocoa Mass Polyphenol (CMP) and Antioxidants
Recent research suggests that massaging the skin with cocoa butter can boost the body's immune system while also alleviating stress. This is because cocoa mass polyphenol (CMP) is present in cocoa butter in large quantities. Cocoa butter also contains antioxidants, as well as being naturally rich in Vitamin E and other vitamins and minerals. Unlike "added" Vitamin E, which generally contains only one tocopherol (and in many cases can be synthetic), naturally occurring Vitamin E contains all tocopherols, which makes it more bio-available and useful to the body. |

 Fair Trade Cocoa Butter
Good for all!
Simply put, Fair Trade certification is the means by which the quality of life is greatly improved for the farmers, their families and their communities. This is because the producers of these precious products are guaranteed fair market prices for the goods that they produce. In addition, Fair Trade certification allows the farmers and producers to avoid cost-cutting
practices that may otherwise undermine their traditional farming
practices, ensuring that the quality of the cocoa products remain high.
For Badger, being a part of the Fair Trade initiative falls in line with one of our core principles: "Supporting organic and sustainable agriculture through our purchasing practices". We believe strongly in sustainability, and this includes promoting healthy lives for the producers of our fabulous ingredients.
To learn more, or to get involved, visit transfairusa.org, and look for the fair trade logo when you buy goods such as cocoa and chocolate, coffee, tea, herbs, fresh fruit, sugar, rice and vanilla!
