Gearing Up For Winter

Having a warm winter coat and boots are essential to every child's well-being during the cold winter months. In 2007, Cradles to Crayons saw orders for more than 5,000 winter coats. During these tough economic times, we anticipate an unprecendented demand for our services. Our goal is to outfit 10,000 children this winter with the everyday essentials they need to stay safe and warm. You can make a difference!

$25 provides a child with a KidPack full of warm winter essentials.
