Review for Cradles to Crayons, Newton, MA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been involved with the Cradles to Crayon for some time both as a Board member and a volunteer. They are a well run organization and have done an outstanding job managing their phenomenal growth and serving their client needs. Their model of recycling and giving back is sustainable and easy to support. It's rare to come across an organization that will allow all members of the family to get involved from a volunteer perspective. Cradles to Crayons allows for meaningful, hands-on volunteering. It's a great organization and one with which I'm proud to be involved.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Seen the value of the organization from the perspective of the ultimate beneficiaries - the children and families we serve.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Give them the financial backing needed to support their growth, including helping them establish a more sophisticated approach to donation collection and distribution of product.

Role:  Board Member & Sorted and cleaned gently used children's items.
