UPEI students are going door-to-door in surrounding neighbourhoods to collect non-perishable food items on Friday, October 31 from 5:00–7:00 pm in support of UPEI’s food bank. Trick or Eat® is a youth-led national event that puts a new spin on the annual night of giving – Halloween. Instead of candy, thousands of Trick or Eaters across the country raise money online and go door-to-door to collect non-perishable food items for local food agencies. We also raise awareness about hunger in Canada through household flyers, educational materials, and online resources. Suggested items include: pasta products/pasta sauce, rice, canned meats and fish, peanut butter, cereal, canned vegetables, dry and canned soups, fruit juices, canned/powdered milk, baby food, diapers, and beans and legumes. UPEI students, staff, and faculty can drop off any food donations to the Residence Office, Bernadine Hall, 340 (first floor). The office is open from 9:00 am-8:00 pm. All proceeds will support UPEI’s Food Bank. Interested in canvassing for the campaign? Contact Aaron Patton at apatton@upei.ca or Mitchell McIntosh at mrmcintosh@upei.ca
