Ongoing NKP projects...

I thought before I launch the posts of our projects for this year, that I'd share some of the projects that we are continuing to do and that we invite you to still participate in.

Marker Collection:

Back in mid-May I shared that this year we were planning to do a used marker drive to collect and return to Crayola.  You can read more about this effort here: https://noahskindnessproject.blogspot.com/2019/05/used-marker-collection.html
We sure hope you are saving those old, worn out markers this summer. We will be collecting them throughout the summer and then this fall we will be packaging them up to send off to Crayola to be recycled. Please join us, and save those markers to be reused!


Prescription Pill Bottles:

If you have been saving old prescription pill bottles please feel free to continue to share them with us to package and send off to Mathew 25 Ministries.  This was a project we did last year, and are thankful for those who shared old bottles with us.  Read more here about this effort:  https://noahskindnessproject.blogspot.com/2018/07/pill-bottle-collection.html
Several of you have so graciously reached out asking if we are still collecting pill bottles, and most definitely we would be happy to send them off again this year.  Feel free to contact me directly if you'd like to share some of your old used bottles with us and we can make arrangements to pick them up!


The Crayon Initiative:
In 2016 we collected old colors to send off to the Crayon Initiative, an organization that melts down old colors, and recycles them by creating new crayons that they donate to children in hospitals or to schools in need.  You can read more about this initiative: https://haskovecstwolittleangels.blogspot.com/2016/09/noahs-kindness-project-crayon-initiative.html
We were so impressed by so many of you who helped us, we ended up donating a full pallet of old crayons to be remade and make the day of other children.  Thank you!
As you collect your old markers, many may have a collection of colors ready to share as well.  If you'd like to share some of your old colors, we will plan to send them off again this year to the Crayon Initiative too!

Please join us in these initiatives!

Until next time,
Angie
