Phillip Yu is collecting new and gently used Everyday Essentials for Cradles to Crayons, to be distributed free of charge to children in need throughout the Philadelphia region. Cradles to Crayons is a non-profit organization that collect items, new and gently used, for babies through children up to age 12, and distributes them, free of charge, through existing social service agencies, shelters, programs and schools that serve children who are homeless or live in poverty. Cradles to Crayons collects essential items for children all year long so that they have what is needed when it is needed. Phillip is happy to be able to help this organization serve children in need throughout the Philadelphia region.

We NEED your help! YOU can bring a smile to the face of a local child who needs Everyday Essentials. If you are willing to collect from friends and family, please share this with them, and then bring your combined donations to the location above!
