Phillips’ Chocolate Sales To Benefit Rosie’s Place for Poor and Homeless Women.

Phillips Candy House, Boston’s oldest chocolatier, is supporting Rosie’s Place, a sanctuary for poor and homeless women. For every handmade signature chocolate covered cherry sold during the month of May, Phillip’s Candy House will donate a portion of the proceeds to helping women in need.

Established in 1974, Rosie’s Place offers both emergency and long-term assistance to women who have nowhere else to turn. Rosie’s Place is committed to welcoming each guest with respect and unconditional love. Rosie’s Place does not accept government funds but on committed volunteers and private supporters to accomplish its effective and innovative work.
