Spread love this Valentine’s Day season by sewing and stuffing pocket hugs for local students! Pocket hugs are small stuffed shapes that can be used by students to calm themselves or provide sensory input to help them concentrate.
If you are interested in this off-site volunteer opportunity, you can find the instructions below or reach out to our Classroom Solutions Program Manager, Debbie at d.hanna@crayonstoclassrooms.org with any questions!
Start the new year off clearing out your unused office products! Donate your new or gently used office supplies to help stock local classrooms for the second half of the school year.
Our most needed office supplies are the following: staplers, staple removers, tape dispensers, 2-or-3-hole punches, paper trays, file sorters, desk organizers, magazine files, pencil cups, drawer organizers, scissors, keyboards, mouses, binder clips, paper clips, memo pads, wastebaskets, reams of paper and cardstock, envelopes (any size, no logo), new file folders, and guillotine-style paper cutters.
Donations can be dropped off from 8-4PM on M-Th and 8-3PM on Fridays.
Crayons to Classrooms provides essential supplies to teachers of at-risk students across the Miami Valley area for free to ensure that every child has the tools they need to engage, learn, grow, and fully experience the transformative power of education. Last school year alone, we served over 55,000 students. Your support can help transform lives across our community.
