After having to scale back our Halloween program for the past two years due to the pandemic, we’re excited to start up the Halloween Costume Drive again!
Each year in mid-October, we invite our food pantry client families with young children to a special day of “shopping” where their children can choose a Halloween costume. The programs gives families experiencing hardships a bit of normalcy, allowing their children to enjoy trick-or-treating and other Halloween activities with their peers.
HOW TO HELP
We need your help to ensure that we will have enough costumes to provide one for every child aged 12 and under. Donations of new costumes and accessories can be dropped off at our building, located at 105 Adams St., Quincy, Monday-Friday, 12:30-3:30pm, and until 7pm on Tuesdays.
Costumes can also be purchased from our online Amazon Wish List and shipped directly to Interfaith. Monetary donations are also welcome. More information about both options can be found at https://interfaithsocialservices.org/halloween.
Costume donations need to be received by Friday, Oct. 7. Questions about the program can be directed to Seasonal Program Coordinator Natalie McMenamin at natalie@interfaithsocialservices.org or 617-773-6203, ext. 26.
