Ready for Learning

Help Remove Barriers to a Quality Education

With the support of donors like you, we can provide age-appropriate learning supplies including backpacks filled with notebooks, pencils, art supplies, and rulers to the kids experiencing resource insecurity.

Cradles to Crayons’ Ready for Learning initiative provides 70,000 Chicagoland children living in low-income or homeless situations with the essentials they need to thrive—at home, at school, and at play.

Join our community of giving today and provide one Chicagoland student with the learning resources they need.
