I picked up the crayons from Applebees last night!
2 huge bags FULL! Here I am with General Manager John - he was so very nice and helpful.. he offered many more to help the Krayons 4 Kids effort in the future.
HI! My name is Chloe Strang. I am a Sixth grader. Last February I went to South America. Iquitos, Peru to be exact. When we were there I went to a small village where there were lots of children that were in need of school supplies. I bought crayons and paper to bring to the kids. They were so thankful! I loved the feeling that I got when I gave the crayons to the kids .
That is why I decided to start an effort called krayons 4 Kids! This February my family and I are going to Nicaragua. In Nicaragua there are children that need school supplies too. That is why I have asked local restaurants to save the crayons that they give out to children (that other wise get thrown away!). Applebee's has already agreed to save their crayons for me and I am hoping many more restaurants will want to help me too.
In addition to the crayon donations from restaurants, I am requesting cash donations from family and friends – I will use these donations to purchase additional school supplies and to pay for shipping costs to send additional supplies to the schools I have visited. Thank you!
please donate... even just a little bit helps! 5 or 10 dollars (PLEASE!) I will use these donations to buy additional school materials and to cover shipping costs to send supplies to the schools & children I have once visited!
it is easy to donate... just CLICK- CLICK! no paypal account needed. remember... just a few dollars will help the krayons 4 kids effort.
please donate!
