Overview

The Chocolate Lovers Festival Committee Grant, established in 1992, aims to enhance community engagement in Fairfax by supporting local nonprofit organizations. The grant is funded through festival proceeds, promoting initiatives that improve quality of life for residents. Eligible applicants include nonprofits serving the City of Fairfax or those providing direct services to its residents. Funds cannot be used for non-essential projects or operational costs, ensuring that support is directed toward impactful community contributions.

The Chocolate Lovers Festival Committee was founded in 1992 as a collaboration between the City of Fairfax, the Central Fairfax Chamber of Commerce, the Downtown Fairfax Coalition, the Downtown Fairfax Merchants Association, and George Mason University. The mission of the Chocolate Lovers Festival was to draw visitors to Old Town Fairfax, foster community engagement, and strengthen the partnership between the city, businesses, and residents.
As a part of its ongoing mission, the Chocolate Lovers Festival Committee supports local nonprofit efforts through its annual grant program. Each year, a portion of the festival proceeds is donated to nonprofit organizations that are located within the city or serve city residents from within the metropolitan Washington area. The grant is awarded to organizations that contribute to the common good and enhance the quality of life within our community- another reason this festival is about more than just chocolate!
