Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF!!


Join 4th Floor RA and UNICEF Volunteer, Suhaly this October in:
"Make Halloween Count," the 2009 Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF campaign!

Want to
help kids in other parts of the world get the things they need to survive and grow? You've got the power to do it! This October, make Halloween count by participating in Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF. Doing so will help us get things like water, education and medicine to the children who need it most. Your efforts will show that you believe ZERO children should be without the basic necessities that we often take for granted.

See those Orange Boxes at your RA's door? Dump some change in there when you can. On November 1st, we'll collect the funds from the floors and send Goddard's contribution to UNICEF! Easy Enough

Visit http://youth.unicefusa.org/trickortreat/ for more details!
