School supplies are the tools needed to participate in daily classroom learning activities. Within the schools served by Crayons to Classrooms, approximately 86.5% of the students are identified as low-income and lack these necessary supplies. Local teachers often purchase classroom essentials with their own personal funds to fill this gap and provide for their students in need.
You can provide teachers and students at underfunded Miami Valley schools with the resources they need to succeed in the classroom by giving monthly, making an online donation, or dropping off supplies at the Teacher Resource Center.
Become a Backpack Booster by joining our monthly giving program. Support one or more students for the entire school year!
Inspired to support Crayons to Classrooms’ mission today? You can help students in need in your community by donating today!
We accept donations of new products to fill the shelves of the Teacher Resource Center including core school supplies, classroom decorations, STEAM supplies, books, and more. We also accept gently used office supplies or classroom tools!
Legacy gifts allow Crayons to Classrooms to plan for long-term support of students and teachers, helping us continue our mission of providing essential classroom supplies to teachers and students in need for years to come.
“I had a great experience at Crayons to Classrooms. It was easy, organized and fun! I love going shopping for teacher and classroom supplies each year, but when I was able to do the same thing and come back to school with all the FREE LOOT it was so much more fun! Teachers spend a lot of money for their classrooms each and every year. This is so refreshing that people see a need. This is a great opportunity for all educators. Thank you!!”
