In a heartwarming initiative that combines the love for chocolate with the power of art, the Belize Chocolate Company has delivered on its promise to support local schools in San Pedro, Ambergris Caye. Today, Tuesday, January 21, the company distributed over $2,000 worth of art supplies to three local primary schools: San Pedro Roman Catholic School, New Horizons, and Holy Cross Primary School.
This inspiring donation stems from the success of the company’s innovative ART Bar, a 70% dark chocolate treat launched last year. The ART Bar isn’t just a delight for the taste buds—it’s a celebration of Belizean creativity. Each collectible package features stunning artwork from talented local artists, including Papo, Vasquez, Chan, and Chuy. Beyond showcasing local talent, the ART Bar has a purpose: a percentage of every bar sold goes directly toward funding art and school supplies for primary and high schools.
The art supplies include paints, pencils, sketching pads, craft materials, and more—tools that will undoubtedly spark creativity and help nurture the next generation of artists in San Pedro. “Art has the power to inspire, to educate, and to build communities,” said the Belize Chocolate Company. “We’re thrilled to support local schools and to give students the resources they need to explore their creativity.”

This initiative highlights how businesses can give back to their communities in meaningful ways, combining their passion with a mission to make a difference. As the ART Bar continues to gain popularity, so does its impact, blending the rich flavors of Belizean chocolate with the vibrant artistry of the nation’s talent. The Belize Chocolate Company’s commitment to art and education is a testament to the power of combining creativity and community support.
Next time you indulge in a Belize Chocolate Company ART Bar, you’re not just enjoying a delicious treat—you’re contributing to a brighter, more creative future for San Pedro’s young artists.
