Reverse Trick or Treating
Where
Various
When
October 31, 2008
On Halloween 2009, children across the US and
Canada will unite to alleviate poverty among
cocoa farmers and end abusive child labor in
the cocoa industry by giving Fair Trade
chocolate back to adults while
Trick-or-Treating in their communities.
Reverse Trick-or-Treating transforms Halloween into a meaningful event when youth activists give back to their neighbors and to cocoa growing communities.
