Who We Are
Cradles to Crayons provides children from birth through age 12, living in homeless or low-income situations, with the essential items they need to thrive – at home, at school and at play. We supply these items free of charge by engaging and connecting communities. It's our vision that one day every child will have the essentials they need to feel safe, warm, ready to learn, and valued.
What We Do
Our efficient and effective three-step model provides kids with the essentials they need, free of charge. We connect communities that have, with communities that need. New and nearly new children’s items are collected through grassroots community drives and corporate donations. Donations are then processed and packaged by volunteers in our warehouse, The Giving Factory®. Packages from The Giving Factory are distributed to local disadvantaged children — through our collaborative network of diverse service partners.
