About: Cradles to Crayons was founded in 2002 with the mission of providing children with basic necessities, free of charge. These basics include clothing, school supplies, toys, and much more. C to C partners with social service agencies to ensure that those who have the capacity to give can easily be connected with those in need. With locations in Boston and Philly, C to C provides unique, hands-on opportunities for people to help other people. Their vision is that one day, every child will have the basic things they need to be safe, ready to learn, and feel valued.
