Cradles to Crayons sends appreciation to Pine Brook Country Club and generous families for collecting and donating children’s new and like-new items during this Labor Day weekend. Thank you for playing a role in providing local children in low- income situations with essential items so they can thrive at school, at home, and at play.

Cradles to Crayons still needs your help in getting children ready for school from head to toe – and with three donations drop off locations in the Weston area, donating is easier than ever. Before the end of the year, Cradles to Crayons will receive thousands of requests for children’s items. Help meet this demand by cleaning out your closets, and bring your new or like-new children’s items at a Neighborhood Drop Off
