Our Distribution Partners PDF Print E-mail

Through our distribution partnerships with social service agencies that serve children-in-need, we reach hundreds of children each week, thousands a month and tens of thousands a year. Our distribution partners include hospitals and community health centers, DSS and DPH programs, shelters, schools, parenting workshops, literacy and mentoring programs, among others.

To serve as many children as possible, we take orders through our online ordering system exclusively.

We invite social service agencies to become a Cradles to Crayons partner and help get everyday essentials to children who do not have what they need. To register, click here.
