Big Smiles, Sweet Treats, and Warm Coats: A Candy “Coated” Trunk-or-Treat Extravaganza!

For the fourth year, we’ve proudly partnered with Operation Warm to distribute new winter coats to over 1,600 youth across Atlantic, Middlesex, and Ocean Counties in New Jersey, as well as in the Bronx, New York.

Each Candy “Coated” Trunk-or-Treat event brought out hundreds of community members for an evening of fun. Youth participants each had the opportunity to select their own coat and enjoy  Halloween treats. As an added bonus, parents and caregivers were able to access valuable information from dozens of nonprofit and public partners.

This program is made possible with support from our collaborators and generous funders: AtlantiCare, Citta Foundation, Gormley Family Foundation, Grunin Foundation, Levine Family Foundation, and the Wintrode Family Foundation and Causeway Cares. Together, we brought smiles and warmth to youth throughout our community.
