Cradles to Crayons Thanks St. Brigid Church and Lexington Community for the LexFUN! Family Time to Give Event

Cradles to Crayons sends appreciation to St. Brigid Parish and generous families for donating children’s new and like-new items and volunteering during the LexFUN! Family Time to Give- Sorting Event. This event helped provide essential items for 400 children in need! Thank you for playing a role in providing local children in low- income situations with essential items so they can thrive at school, at home, and at play.

Cradles to Crayons still needs your help in keeping children in need warm this winter – and with three donations drop off locations in the Lexington area, donating is easier than ever.
