Cradles to Crayons, a wonderful charity that collects and donates clothing and toys to children in need, is moving to Newton in Spring 2020!  Lincoln-Eliot is thrilled to be one of their donation sites this week, and we’d love to encourage families to bring in items to fill the donation bin before it is picked up on Friday, Dec. 13th.

Please drop off your new and like new clothing (size newborn up to an adult size medium), shoes, and books in the school library from December 2-13 (and in the cafeteria on Thursday during our Books and Cookies Pajama Party).  For more information about items accepted by Cradles to Crayons click here!

Cradles to Crayons also welcomes you to join them at their upcoming community service events to quality check, sort, and package our donations.  The events will take place on Tuesday, December 10, from 1-3:30pm at Newton City Hall’s War Memorial Auditorium, and on Saturday, December 14, from 10am-12pm at the Scandinavian Cultural Center in West Newton.  If you have any questions or are interested in volunteering, please contact Marci Shyavitz.
