For Halloween, Texas senior living center celebrates massive candy donation

November 1, 2019 By Melissa Leon

The Heartis Senior Living facility in Clear Lake, Texas, is ready for trick-or-treaters.

The senior living center recently posted to Facebook asking for candy donations so residents could invite the community to their home and give out candy on Halloween.

“We miss giving candy to trick-or-treaters on Halloween,” one of their sides read.

Another sign said: “Please help us reach our goal of collecting enough candy to invite the community to our home for a safe and fun place to trick or treat.”
