Leading to Halloween, the Free the Children group at the Kamsack Comprehensive Institute conducted a “We Scare Hunger” campaign.
In the campaign, students visited homes with a request for non-perishable foods that are to be used to create food hampers, said Laurissa Fedorchuk, one of about a dozen KCI students involved in the project. A hamper was also set up in the school where students and members of the community could deposit such donations.
This project is similar to the Christmas hamper campaign but is done closer to Halloween, Fedorchuk explained, adding that a hamper was also set up at a Kamsack grocery store.
