Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF

Mark Koenig

We are taking part in Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF. How about you?

This program began in Philadelphia in 1950, the idea of Presbyterians Clyde and Mary Emma Allison as a way to respond to the needs of children in the aftermath of World War II.
In the sixty years since those orange cartons (decorated milk cartons were first used) have been used by children and adults to raise almost $167 million dollars. Those funds are used by UNICEF to provide food, medicine, and education to help children thrive.
By participating in Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF, Presbyterians serve in the global neighborhood as disciples of Jesus who calls us to love one another.

• The Office of Child Advocacy provides a bulletin insert on Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF in color and in black and white.
• Read the story about the Allisons and the origins of Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF.
• Find the resources needed to Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF as well as ideas for how to participate.
• Pray for UNICEF.
• Support the work of UNICEF.

Together we make a difference for children around the world.
