While some young people in Chatham will be trick-or-treating, others will be taking to the streets to support the local food bank.
Ursuline College Chatham (UCC) will be holding its annual Lancers Scare Hunger event on October 31, organized by students with the UCC CARES Club.
Hundreds of UCC students and volunteers will be visiting neighbourhoods across Chatham to collect non-perishable donations. Community members who won’t be home but want to donate are encouraged to leave donations on their porches with a label marked “UCC” or “donation.”
Donations will be collected from 4:30 p.m. to 8 p.m.
All food donations gathered from the event will help support Chatham Outreach for Hunger to meet increased demand during the holiday season.
