On Wednesday, February 12th five reading volunteers from DECA Prep came and volunteered at Crayons to Classrooms to earn a free shopping trip for each of the DECA teachers that they volunteer with. The volunteers worked on our classroom solutions projects. Because of their volunteerism, 5 teachers that were not currently eligible will now be able to shop! Incredible, right? The volunteer group was set up by our board member, Lynda Hoffman, who is also a DECA volunteer. Thanks for your help!!

On Monday, February 24th, we had a group of 6 DSW store managers from the Dayton/Cincinnati area come in and volunteer for 3 hours. They helped create die-cuts and journals from recycled paper. Teachers will be able to use these items in their classrooms. In addition to those 3 hours, DSW also hosted a supply drive for Crayons to Classrooms. As if that wasn't great enough, Crayons to Classrooms will also be receiving a monetary donation from DSW's Shoe Lovers Care program. Volunteering in the store, organizing a supply drive, and donating directly to DC2C: how amazing is that? Answer: absolutely amazing. Thanks for everything, DSW!!
