Halloween for Hunger
HALLOWEEN FOR HUNGER - Deshaye's Mini Minga Movement latest drive to make a difference!! Make HALLOWEEN more than costumes and candy... Let's make all students a little more "saint-like" as we get closer to All-Saints Day!
This year we are going to ask our Deshaye community to collect cans for the Food Bank when they go Trick or Treating.... Of course students should always go with either a parent or ask people they know for donations. Imagine of every kid collected 2 cans or other non-perishable items?? We could get almost 700 food items! This effort would make a huge difference to the REGINA FOOD BANK, which incidently always gets a little low on food after Thanksgiving.
Why are we doing this???
Some people may think that we're asking our community to give in one more way... we ask too much... Well, this time we are spreading awareness about the importance of hunger in our community and the importance of giving back.
All Souls and All Saints are traditionally celebrated around Halloween... Well, here's one more opportunity for students to be all the more "Saint-like" - like Mother Teresa - and look for ways to raise awareness about hunger in our own community. All non -perishable donations will be collected at Deshaye, and picked up by Food Bank volunteers.
