Trick or Trunks are a great way for the community to celebrate October, and a way for the students to get involved. The Future Child Advocates gives the student organizations of Central Michigan University a chance to connect to the community and the kids within in it.

The CMU branch of FCA has sponsored a Trick or Trunk on campus for the past few years. During the event RSOs decorate their cars and hand out candy to children. The kids and their families can also participate in other activities they offer, such as face painting, pumpkin tic tac toe, and toilet paper bowling.

For several of the members of the participating RSOs, it was their first year, and they were already enjoying the festivities. “We like dressing up, and we like the kids,” says the members of SGA.

FCA is an organization that offers support and brings awareness to bully, abuse, and other hardships a child my face. They want kids to know that whatever they are going through, they are not alone. Bringing the community and campus together for a time that is memorable and fun for kids tells them that there is a whole community looking out for them.
