Cradles to Crayons Partners with PECO® for the BIG GIVE Collection Day

Fall weather in Philadelphia can quickly transition from summer heat to winter frost, causing a surge in Cradles to Crayons ‘KidPack’ requests for local children in need. To restock the Giving Factory and prepare for the upcoming winter season, Cradles to Crayons has partnered with PECO® to sponsor this year’s BIG GIVE, a multi-county collection day that benefits low income and homeless children across the Greater Philadelphia region. At the Cradles to Crayons Giving Factory, the collected items will be processed, sorted and individually packed to create customized KidPacks for local children who would not have access to these essential items otherwise.

The BIG GIVE will have collection sites at the following locations.

• Neshaminy Mall | Bensalem, PA (drop-offs donations in the Security Office near Entrance 5)
