The PNC Foundation recently supported social emotional learning in the classroom by awarding Crayons to Classrooms with a $5,000 grant.
Over 40 individuals and local organizations generously donated hundreds of items for local educators to recognize them for their hard work and dedication.
CenterPoint Energy's $25,000 grant provided free STEM kits targeted to varied ages, grades, and STEM topics for local students.
Crayons to Classrooms' sustainability efforts aim toward keeping supplies, products, and books out of the dump and into classrooms in need.
RELX awarded Crayons to Classrooms a STEM grant of $12,000, allowing C2C to purchase solar eclipse glasses for local students.
Since 2021, Crayons to Classrooms has distributed over 7,430 pocket hugs to local teachers, helping students self-soothe and concentrate during class.
"[C2C has] helped me multiple times due to my school not having any material to support my students. It helped to relieve stress and anxiety about preparing for class. I have items that I would have never been able to afford with my own salary."
