Volunteers get briefed on how to go door-to-door seeking food donations during Trick or Eat, October 31.
Nov 14th, 2013
Student volunteers collected 1,000 pounds of canned goods during the Trick or Eat food drive, helping to replenish food banks at Hiatus House and the Well-come Centre.
Sponsors of the October 31 event, which sent students door-to-door seeking donations of non-perishable items, included:
- the Organization of Part-time University Students, which made a $300 donation and promoted participation to its members;
- Campus Ministry, which provided a kick-off dinner for volunteers before they set off; and
- the Campus Dental Centre, which donated raffle prizes for volunteers as well as $150 toward operating costs.
Meal Exchange Windsor, organizer of the food drive, expressed gratitude to all volunteers and donors.
