Trick or Eat
Our sixth annual food drive that takes place on Halloween. Students from Kelsey/Siast and U of S get dressed up in costumes and go door to door, asking for nonperishable food items and donations for the Saskatoon Food Bank and Learning Centre. Monetary donations can be made online at www.trickoreat.ca. This event is to help raise awareness of hunger in the community, and to thank the Saskatoon Food Bank and Learning Centre for the hampers they provide the Food Centre throughout the year. A small portion of the food is kept to fill the shelves at the USSU Food Centre.
