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!

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.
This past summer I volunteered to work a day at Crayons to Classrooms and helped make multiple packs of items for teachers! We got to socialize, collaborate, and talk as volunteers. Then, because I volunteered my time, I got a free shopping trip. When I went for my shopping trip, I got amazing, quality items for my students and classroom! I can’t wait to volunteer again and know that I get to help in making and then receiving.
