But costumes can get expensive, especially when you have several kids going trick or treating. 

So a family from the Lower East Side is collecting costumes to give away. 

Alan Van Capelle and his sons, Ethan and Patrick, stopped by CBS2 to share their mission. 

You can send new or gently used costumes to: 

197 East Broadway
New York, N.Y. 10002
Attention: Costumes for Kids
