Halloween Candy Buyback 2013
October 24, 2013
This Halloween, Dr VanderMolen and the team here at Advanced Dental Care of Springfield are quite literally putting our money where our mouths are. We’ve decided to participate in a program called the Halloween Candy Buyback.
This program gives trick-or-treaters the opportunity to exchange some or all of their Halloween haul for cash. The collected candy will then be sent to Operation Gratitude in California where it will be sorted and repackaged and then distributed to troops serving overseas.
Each child is eligible to receive $1 per pound, up to a five (5) pound limit, for all unopened, uneaten candy. We also encourage the children to draw pictures and/or write letters or notes to include in the packages to our troops.
We will be collecting the candy on Friday, November 1st, the day after Halloween, from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm, and again on Saturday, November 2nd from 8:00 am until 1:00 pm.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call our office at (217) 546-3333 or visit our Facebook page HERE.
