Giving back with our fa-BOO-lous customers!

[Nina_Andres]

It’s OFFICIALLY Halloween season and Invoca is SCARY EXCITED about celebrating with our fa-BOO-lous customers! 

Spirit of Children is a non-profit that provides costumes and throws Halloween parties for children who are too sick to leave the hospital.

We will donate $30 in your name to this incredible organization; all you need to do is respond in the thread with an Autumn or Halloween-themed photo or recipe! Have you carved a pumpkin lately? Maybe you have some spooky decorations up, or perhaps you have a favorite fall recipe you're dying to share... or a killer costume. We want to see! 🍂👻

LOL! This is awesome, @melisreilly1977! That teddy bear is totally going to haunt my dreams!   ☠️🐻 It's always freezing here on Halloween; a onesie is a great idea!

Thank you for your contri-BOO-tion!
