Teal Pumpkin Project

35 DAYS until HALLOWEEN

Halloween is a fun time of make believe, magic, and sweet tasty fun. But for some kids it is a scary time with real threats of life threatening food allergies. This can make it so they can’t participate in some of the funnest parts of Halloween like Parties and Trick or Treating. This is simply not okay- all kids should be able to participate in Halloween. And this is how we can help! TEAL PUMPKIN PROJECT!!! Participation is easy with the Teal Pumpkin Project. 

How to take part in the Teal Pumpkin Project in your community:

  1. Provide Non-food treats for Trick-or-Treaters
  2. Paint or Purchase a Teal Pumpkin
  3. Place your teal pumpkin in front of your house
  4. Let folks know your a safe house for food allergies!
