From now through Sunday, Sept. 19, Cockeye Creamery, located at 1805 1/2 Parkman Road NW in Warren, will be serving its ��ɫֱ��-inspired ice cream “Black Squirrel” to raise money for ��ɫֱ�� at Trumbull’s Care Closet. 
 
��ɫֱ�� alumnus Max Hoover, owner of Cockeye Creamery, created the flavor to pay homage to ��ɫֱ��’s unofficial mascot: the black squirrel. It is a combination of espresso ice cream, caramel streak and cinnamon streusel. 
 
Hoover is generously donating 15% of Black Squirrel proceeds to ��ɫֱ�� Trumbull’s Care Closet. 
 
Earlier this summer, Hoover ran a similar campaign that benefited the Campus Kitchen at ��ɫֱ��, which provides nutritious food and meals each week for students and Portage County community members struggling with food insecurity. In just a week, he sold more than 20 gallons. 
 
“Giving back to the community is important to my family and me,” Hoover said. “Some students are struggling to work, take care of their families, take classes and study, so it’s nice to do something that may ease their burden.”
 
��ɫֱ�� Trumbull’s Care Closet is set to open this fall. It was created by the 2020-2021 Undergraduate Student Government. The Care Closet provides food, personal items, and casual and professional clothing to students in need.
