Trick or Eat—help support UPEI’s Food Bank

Posting Date(s)
UPEI students are going door to door to collect non-perishable food items on Thursday, October 31 from 4:15–7:00 pm in support of UPEI’s food bank. They will be visiting the following Charlottetown streets: Seaview Blvd, Cooper St, Atlantic St, Carvell St, Hunt Ave, Shell St, Westview St, Skyview St, and Hutchinson St. “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 and legumes. Items can also be donated to the group organizers. All proceeds will support UPEI’s Food Bank. Interested in canvassing for the campaign?
