Hope Chocolates - Employee Stories
At Hope Chocolates, we are all about Hope: Hope that comes from a God who is at work in this world to redeem the lost and broken. All of us are lost and broken and we need hope to restore us and to grow us. At Hope Chocolates, we acknowledge our weaknesses because, as the Bible says, when we are weak, then He is strong. Here are a few of our stories. We hope that you will partner with us.
Chocolatier
"After serving time in prison, I was given a chance to start over working for Hope Chocolates. I had some culinary skills but they trained me in how to make a variety of premier chocolate products. I am now working as a chocolatier. I love being part of something bigger than myself and enjoy the friendships I have at the company."
Logistics
"I am very grateful that God has given me this job at Hope Chocolates. I have learned a lot of new skills & stuff. One of my favorite Bible verses is 'Let there be light'. For the longest time I lived in darkness but now God has given me the light to live in."

I have worked in Corporate America my entire career but have always wanted to give back to the community. Hope Chocolates has given me the opportunity to apply my business skills and experience in a God-honoring way, pouring my efforts into something that has eternal significance.
