Power 93.7 WBLK is providing a safe place for trick-or-treaters to do some treating of their own by bringing in a canned good and other non-perishable food items for a charity food drive in exchange for candy. The event will take place at the William-Emslie YMCA on October 31st from 6 pm to 8 pm. For a donation of a canned food item per child (with a parent), young people will be able to trick or treat at the tables of local community organizations and table sponsors. Tables and chairs will be provided.

As a Trick or Treat Table sponsor, you will need to provide at least 600 pieces of candy or promotional items to distribute to the attendees.

Please reach out via the form below by 5 pm on Friday, October 10, 2025, if you are interested, as space is limited!

On Tuesday, October 31, 2022, Power 93.7 WBLK and the William-Emslie YMCA teamed up with several community partners to host Cans For Candy, an annual family-friendly indoor trick-or-treating event inside a safe and well-lit building. Several hundred children who were encouraged to bring one (1) canned good or non-perishable food item to benefit Feedmore WNY descended upon Buffalo’s Emslie Neighborhood to enjoy a night of safe trick or treating.
