Halloween will be here before you know it! Many of you may have even started to buy your Trick or Treat candy. We had such an overwhelming response from our patients and community last year with our "Halloween Candy Buy Back" program, we can't wait to do it again. The official date of the "event" is Tues November 1. We will accept candy all that week.
When the kids get back from Trick or Treating, let them choose some candy to keep and then bring a bag of candy to us for our Halloween Candy Buy Back campaign. Once again, we will collect candy and send it to our service men and women honoring and serving our great country. Please consider joining us. We sent out over 150 pounds of candy last year and would be thrilled to send more this year!
If you or a family member is a patient of record, will pay the child/children donating their candy $1 per pound of candy. We would be thrilled if they would write a short note on a card to include in the packages. We would love for you to share this with your friends and neighbors. Please just tell them that we will only pay children. Technically, this is a service partnership for us with our patients and their families, not a money making opportunity for others.
All that being said, we welcome you to tell your friends and neighbors that we will gladly ship their DONATED candy. Share the FaceBook post, forward this link/email...have fun with it! It is a win/win. The kids will have fun Trick or Treating, eat a few favorite pieces of candy, and send a smile to someone who might need it!
