Why not gather all of your friends for a festive costume party and also learn about UNICEF and raise funds for the Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF campaign. You can register your party today at www.unicefusa.org/halloweenparties. If your party is one of the first 100 registered, they will send you a Halloween Party Kit full of goodies, making your party that much easier to host. The Kits include a Halloween Party Guide, stickers, door hangers, our trademark orange boxes, Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF branded cups and plates and door signs.
Halloween is the perfect time to get your kids involved in activism for children's rights by encouraging them to Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF, or their favorite charity. The fun of Halloween is in the costume and running around the neighborhood, so why not encourage them to help other children around the world who do not have the privilege of dressing up to scourer for candy, but are forced to search for food or water. And dare I say there is no fear that this honorable little Trick-or-Treaters will still return home with a bounty of candy, while still finding joy in helping children across the globe.
