YOU CAN BE A LOCAL HERO TO A CHILD...

For thousands of students in our community, basic school supplies are a luxury. Think about being asked to paint a picture without a brush or play music without an instrument. Many children in our community face this situation every day when they go to school. We believe helping disadvantaged students to succeed is as simple as...one pencil, one crayon and one notebook.

Your business, organization, or community group can become a hero to local classrooms and help local students by hosting a school supply drive. The basic school supplies collected will go onto the shelves of our teacher free store to supply local classrooms in need. Teachers most often request:

  • Pencils
    		•
  • Folders
    		•
  • Pens
    		•
  • Scissors
    		•
  • Crayons (24 count)
    		•
  • Rulers
    		•
  • Glue Sticks
    		•
  • Markers
    		•
  • Filler Paper
    		•
  • Notebooks
    		•
  • Construction Paper
    		•
  • Facial Tissue
    		•

    Crayons to Classrooms will provide a "tool kit" of promotional materials to help facilitate a school supply drive. If you are interested in getting involved or have questions, please contact Deb Seger, retail program manager, by phoning (937)528-6403 or via e-mail, d.seger@dc2c.org.
