“Powerful is how I describe what your organization did for McLane Children’s Medical Center. Because of your organization you made a child’s visits a little less scary and more comfortable during procedures, Thank you for your impact.”

“On behalf of the Children’s Hospital at the Medical University of South Carolina and our pediatric patients, I want to extend our immense gratitude and appreciation for your generous donation. Your donation of crayons will put a smile on the face of many patients who will truly benefit from them. One of our goals is to normalize the hospital experience for our patients and their families. We encourage the emotional well-being and normal development of children in a health care setting. Donations like yours assist us in recognizing our patients in a positive way and provide a sense of normalcy which is often lost during hospitalization. “

“Your contributions aid our department in normalizing the hospital experience and making our patients’ stay more enjoyable. It is through your support that we are able to promote children’s development and bridge the gap between home and hospital.”

My special needs clients love collecting, sorting and packaging crayons knowing they will be loved all over again!You see, most of my clients started their journey in life at a children’s hospital; so this project has come full circle and couldn’t be more perfect! This is our first shipment to you and we hope to have many more in the future. Thank you for all your love and giving hearts!”

“My name is Abigal, I am 6. I live in North Carolina. My friends and I collected these crayons for you. One of my friends was in the hospital and got some crayons from you! He helped us collect these crayons and the ones we sent last year. That’s great! Thank you for helping our earth!”

“I utilize Crayon Initiative crayons often in our pediatric surgery area, and they make a world of difference! When pediatric patients come in for surgery, they are often hungry and/or scared. Providing coloring opportunities is a simple, yet very effective, way that I provide normalization and/or diversion for them while they wait in the hospital environment. We can’t thank them enough for their kindness and generosity!!”

“To the beautiful soul who is going to use these crayons. Try to stay strong through the hard times. Draw amazing photos for all to enjoy! Let your light shine through!”
