This Year, Try Reverse-Trick-or-Treating!
Ladies & Gentleman, Halloween is officially only 3 days away! The countdown has begun and if you have kids, have neices or nephews, grandchildren or any other little ghouls and goblins that might be trick-or-treating with you this year, I have a very novel, very awesome suggestion for you!
This year, instead of, or even better, in addition to actually taking your loved ones trick-or-treating, take them Reverse Trick-or-Treating! What the heck is reverse-trick-or-treating, you might be asking? Well I’m glad you did.
Reverse-Trick-or-Treating, is when you team up with the kind folks over at Global Exchange and their Fair Trade organization to help spread the message as to the benefits of Fair Trade, as well as the plight of many cocoa farmers around the world. What you do is, sign up through their website, receive informational cards and even samples of their Fair Trade chocolates and sweets, and then when you ring someone’s doorbell, give THEM a sample and a little lesson, while You get their candy in return. Perfect, and perfectly simple!
In the article I read suggesting this, it is the second year the company has done this, and last year was a wild success and helped make Halloween about a lot more than just ringing doorbells and stashing candy. Over a quarter of a million samples will go out this year, get your hands on some!
