Hillsborough High School Thespian Troupe Hosts Non-Perishable Drive To Combat Child Hunger All donations go back to the Hillsborough community, as they donate all proceeds to the Hillsborough CAN association.

HILLSBOROUGH, NJ — Hillsborough High School Thespian Troupe 10385 is kicking off this year's TOTs Eats nonperishable drive starting Oct. 1 until Nov. 1.

Annually Troupe #10385 of Hillsborough High School hosts a non-perishable drive to combat child hunger. They partner with businesses and elementary schools to create platforms to collect donations across the community, and build awareness about how close to home child hunger really is. Each year students also ask for donations while Trick or Treating.

This year find donation boxes at:

Hillsborough Starbucks (Earn a FREE Tall Coffee or Tea With Each Donation)

Habitat for Humanity

Hillsborough Elementary

Triangle Elementary

Woodfern Elementary

Amsterdam Elementary

Hillsborough High School

St. Thomas Syro-Malabar Catholic Forane Church

All donations go back to the Hillsborough community, as they donate all proceeds to the Hillsborough CAN association.

Last year, Thespian Troupe #10385 collected more than 600 pounds of donations. They were also awarded the TOTs Eats "Unsung Hero" award, (for having the highest percent increase from the previous year in donations) and awarded a proclamation of excellence in fighting child hunger from the State Senate.

They hope that you will help them reach their goals this year by donating non-perishable items.

Trick Or Treat so Kids Can Eat is a non-perishable item drive that The New Jersey Thespian Honor Society encourages each of their troupes across the state to participate in during the month of October, and to compete for the most pounds of donations collected.
