Mission Plate for July

 

 

Cradles to Crayons provides children from birth through age 12, living in homeless or low income  situations, with the essential items they need to thrive – at home, at school and at play. Cradles to Crayons supply these items free of charge by engaging and connecting communities.

In the United States, 2 in 5 children live at or below 200% of the federal poverty, a level that ranges from deep poverty (50%) to low income (200%). These families struggle to pay for rent and groceries and often can’t afford anything else. Basic items for their children: clothes that fit, shoes, a coat for cold weather, are
simply not possible.

Please give generously to our mission plate at Holy Trinity Church, especially as back-to-school items will be needed by many families very soon.
Cradle to Crayons is located in Newtonville, MA and provides to children across the state.
