The annual Halloween Treat or Eat campaign is set to return, continuing its vital role in supporting the Petawawa Pantry. In 2022, the campaign successfully collected 3,180 lbs of food and raised nearly $1,200, making it the Pantry’s largest annual donation event.
On Halloween night, community members are encouraged to participate by creating or joining teams of walkers to collect donations in their neighborhoods. Alternatively, residents can set up donation boxes at home for neighbors to contribute throughout the month.
Registration is available online at www.petawawapantryfoodbank.com under the “Get Involved” section. For additional information, individuals can reach out via Facebook or call the food bank at 613-687-1616.
The campaign invites everyone to join in for a spooktacular evening of giving and help in the fight against hunger.
