The news about UNICEF ending their Halloween orange box campaign is kind of sad. Those orange boxes are part of Halloween. Would the campaign be more worth it if people upped their donations from pennies to, say, quarters or loonies?
Wow…I wrote “loonies” and it felt so weird. You know, 150 years from now there will be some Canadian novel in its 10th edition and after their preface there will be a small section on “Money Terms” where they list the values for nickels, dimes, quarters, loonies, toonies.
Back to UNICEF…I think that if UNICEF ends, someone should at least produce trick-or-treat boxes (for candy) that are giant replicas of the UNICEF boxes…or maybe that is already out there.
