Once again, Sprague will be participating in the Wellesley wide Cradles to Crayons drive from October 24th through November 2nd. We will be collecting new or gently used clothing, toys and books for children in need. Cradles to Crayons mission is to provide these children with the essential items they need to thrive - at home, at school and at play and every year the Wellesley community does a fantastic job in supporting this mission.
You can drop off items to be donated in the morning car line or in the Cradles to Crayons box outside the main doors to Sprague starting October 24th. Want to get involved collecting or sorting donated items? Click here to find out how.
Most needed items right now: Adult sizes in coats, shoes and winter boots (for children 12 and up who are tall/ big for their age), Boys' pants sizes 5/6 - 18/20, Baby coats size 0-6 months, Girls winter coats size 5/6, Boys winter coats size 7/8, Baby winter hats & gloves, Crib bedding and Infant & toddler toys
From Sprague Mom, Elizabeth Kim:
ReplyDeleteI just volunteered yesterday at the Cradles to Crayons warehouse filling orders from service agencies, and the biggest needs right now are for adult sizes in coats, shoes and winter boots, esp. women's sizes 8 and up. These are for kids 12 and up who are tall or big for their age. Also crib bedding, infant/toddler toys, and unused, unopened potential birthday gifts for teens.
Like me, I don't think people think of adult sizes for C2C - please consider as you put your donations together.
