Man Helps Cheer Sick Kids With Leftover Crayons From Schools And Restaurants

Every year, thousands of pounds of crayons are thrown away by restaurants and schools. He and his small group of volunteers collect the crayons from schools and restaurants. They melt the crayons down and and pour them into special custom molds. They are thicker than the average crayon. the reason they are thicker is so young children and kids with special needs can hold onto them easier. When they are ready they are boxed and delivered to children’s hospitals throughout california. Since starting, they’ve delivered over 2000 boxes. over the past month, Bryan says he is “sincerely blown away” by the positive response his project has received on social media.
