Crayons to Classrooms is a free store for teachers from under-funded preK-12 schools that serve students living in poverty. Crayons to Classrooms serves schools in Ohio’s Miami Valley with 60% or more of their students participating in the National School Lunch Program. C2C promotes the full participation (shopping with us once a semester) of certified teachers from qualified schools within the following counties: Clark, Darke, Greene, Miami, Montgomery, Preble, and north Warren County. Schools are added to the C2C eligibility list on an individual basis as determined by the organization. Additionally, C2C serves select schools in rural counties based on median income.
Only certified teachers at eligible schools are invited to shop. This includes principals, assistant principals, general education teachers, intervention specialists, and specials teachers such as physical education, music and art teachers. For anyone that is not within these guidelines, please refer your questions to Carlye Rausch at c.rausch@crayonstoclassrooms.org. You can read our Shopper Eligibility Guidelines here.
Select your County or District below to find out if your school is currently eligible.
"I ALWAYS look forward to my Crayons to Classrooms throughout the semester! I can always count on them to have exactly what I need to replenish my classroom. Whether it be general supplies, bookbags, prizes for a prize box, decorations, and even masks now. I love getting new things to show my students and they are always excited when I carry in the bags or boxes from my trip!"
