Crayons to Classrooms secures and distributes school supplies at no cost to teachers of students in need. In 2022, C2C distributed more than $2.8 million worth of supplies to 119 schools and seven childcare centers in Montgomery, Greene, Clark, Preble and Warren counties. Funding will be used to secure a 10,000-square-foot warehouse space for the organization to securely store educational items including craft supplies, pencils and disinfectant wipes, as well as stock special items such as socks, underwear, menstrual hygiene products, social-emotional learning tools and financial literacy learning aids.
