Super Crayons

Why rescue crayons?

Our Super Crayon Project diverts crayons from going to the landfill!  After removing whole crayons that can be reused, we recycle the broken crayon pieces into “Super Crayons.”  Volunteers help sort, peel, and melt the broken crayons.  The liquid crayon mixture is poured into molds to form large crayons in a variety of shapes which can be used by children with special needs.

Thank you to all who bring us crayons and to those volunteers who spend time on this project.

  • We can reuse the oil from the crayons
  • We can help kids with special needs
  • We can prevent crayons from entering our landfills
  • It's creative & fun!
