Chicago, this time of year is about sharing love and giving, not just to your friends and family, but also to your community around you. That's why I'm taking the time to highlight some non profit organizations around the city that help the community that we live in:
One of these organizations is CRADLES TO CRAYONS CHICAGO. CRADLES TO CRAYONS tackles the urgent need for support for the average family in poverty by providing children from birth through age 12 with essential items they need to thrive. Whether it is at home, at school or at play, the items are supplied free of charge by engaging and connected communities with the goal that one day every child will have the essentials they need to feel safe, warm, ready to learn, and valued.
