The Teal Pumpkin Project raises awareness for children with food allergies, allowing them to partake in Halloween fun by signaling non-food treats with teal pumpkins.
A food allergy can occur when a child's immune system reacts adversely to certain foods, potentially leading to severe reactions, necessitating caution during Halloween.
Veronica LaFemina emphasized that children with food allergies want to enjoy Halloween too, but must avoid many candies, often leading to exclusion from traditional festivities.
Becky Basalone created the teal pumpkin to address the challenges faced by families with food allergies during Halloween, emphasizing the importance of inclusivity for all children.
