Student-Athletes Collect Change on Campus
PHILADELPHIA – The Temple University sports teams are going to trick-or-treat this Halloween … for UNICEF.
Instead of passing out candy, the student-athletes will be collecting monetary donations. Orange collections boxes are located at numerous campus locations to collect loose change.
The tradition of “Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF” began in 1950 in the United States, when Philadelphia school children first went door-to-door at Halloween collecting money in decorated milk cartons to help their global peers.
They raised a grand total of $17, kicking off a campaign that has since brought in millions of dollars each year to help UNICEF provide medicine, better nutrition, safe water, education, emergency relief and other support to children in more than 150 countries.
Did you know:
- 6 cents provides water for a thirty child
- $25 immunizes three children against polio for life
- $45 can provide schools supplies for 20 children
- $112 can provide emergency blankets to 37 children
-$200 immunizes 104 children against measles
The “Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF” is on campus as a part of Temple's CHAMPS/Life skills program.
Donations will be collected until Nov. 2.
