#TFPThoughtfulThursday SPECIAL HALLOWEEN EDITION: The National Confectioners Association projects that the U.S. confectionery industry will generate over $6.4 billion in sales in 2024! And while we often think of philanthropy as the giving of money, time, or talent to help others, 94% of Americans give away their candy to family, neighbors, and community friends. So Halloween can be a pretty sweet (pun intended) example of philanthropy in action! We wish everyone a safe and fun Halloween! #happyhalloween
