For one month only: Drop off children’s items at the Cradles to Crayons Collection Unit at Belmont Day School!

Through April 12th, Belmont Day School is hosting a Collection Unit accessible 24/7 for pubic donation drop offs. Encourage your family to recycle quality items they’ve outgrown. Last year’s favorite jeans, or the bedtime story they couldn’t get enough of, can have a second life in the hands of a local child in-need!
