Brock’s Student Life and Community Experience is hosting Trick or Eat on Friday, Oct. 31, an annual event that sees students going door-to-door in the St. Catharines and Thorold communities surrounding the campus collecting canned goods.

The donations will be split to support Community Care of St. Catharines and Thorold as well as the Student Justice Centre’s campus food bank.

“I feel very fortunate to have been able to get an education, have a roof over my head and a family that has always supported me financially and with love,” says Chrizanna D’Silva, student administrative and customer service assistant and co-ordinator of the event. “I think it is important to give back in the community that has helped support my education, and Trick or Eat is a simple and fun way to give back.”

This event is open to the entire Brock community, and since it takes place on Halloween, costumes are encouraged.

Registration will begin at 4 p.m. in the Schmon Tower lobby and the food drive will take place in the community from 4:30-6:30 p.m.

The goal for this year is to gather 2,000 pounds of food donations for the community.

If you would like to sign-up individually or as a group/team, visit the event page in experiencebu.brocku.ca.

If you are not able to participate on Oct. 31 but would like to contribute, donation bins are available this week in the Schmon Tower lobby.
