During this season so full of thankfulness and joy for many of us, CHFM’s First Day Program is organizing a collection for the organization, Cradles to Crayons. 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. We invite all members of our CHFM community to help by donating from the list of items below and/or by volunteering to go with the FDS families to the Cradles to Crayons Warehouse in Conshohocken on December 12th from 1-3 (arrival at 12:30).

For a list of items needed please click here. If you knit or crochet, baby booties are always needed. Click on this link for instructions.

You may drop off your donation (in a box or trash bag and include a label with your name in case we need to return these items to you) in one of the Cradles to Crayons donation boxes located in the coat alcove. It does not need to be a large donation. Even a pair of child’s socks or a pack of AA batteries would be most welcome!

If you plan on participating in the volunteer day on 12/12, please RSVP to Evangeline Bragitikos, ebragitikos@comcast.net
