Crayons to Classrooms is a free store for teachers from under-funded preK-12 schools that serve students living in poverty. Crayons to Classrooms serves schools in Ohio’s Miami Valley with 60% or more of their students participating in the National School Lunch Program. C2C promotes the full participation (shopping with us once a semester) of certified teachers from qualified schools within the following counties: Clark, Darke, Greene, Miami, Montgomery, Preble, and north Warren County. Schools are added to the C2C eligibility list on an individual basis as determined by the organization. Additionally, C2C serves select schools in rural counties based on median income.
Only certified teachers at eligible schools are invited to shop. This includes principals, assistant principals, general education teachers, intervention specialists, and specials teachers such as physical education, music and art teachers. For anyone that is not within these guidelines, please refer your questions to Carlye Rausch at c.rausch@crayonstoclassrooms.org. You can read our Shopper Eligibility Guidelines here.
Select your County or District below to find out if your school is currently eligible.
"Students are able to gain a more equitable education because they have access to supplies that they may not otherwise have access to. We can do projects and have a decorated classroom. They can worry about their work instead of tracking down pencils and notebooks. This is such a blessing to classrooms and we are appreciative of the support this program provides."
