Trick or Eat

Event Date:
Wednesday, October 31, 2012, 5:00 pm
UPEI students are going door-to-door in surrounding neighborhoods to collect non-perishable food items on Wednesday, October 31 from 5–7 pm in support of UPEI’s Food Bank. Trick or Eat is a national Halloween food drive organized by Meal Exchange, a registered charity that empowers student leaders to address hunger in their communities. Since 1993, the charity has raised over $3M worth of food and engaged over 87,000 youth across North America. 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, beans & legumes. Food can also be donated to the group organizers and/or $1 donations to purchase a paper pumpkin for Bernadine Hall’s Halloween pumpkin wall. All proceeds will support UPEI’s Food Bank.
