Thank you for Helping a Mother Out!

Diaper drive resultsWhile I was in a meeting today, someone was asking me to explain Cubes&Crayons.  So I started with the basics, we have flexible office space with onsite childcare available for those who need it.  But the reality is that is just what sits on our marketing materials.  Cubes&Crayons is a community of caring professionals and entrepreneurs who are not just connected with each other, but also willing to pull together to reach out to others.

Last week we completed a 3 week diaper drive, launched by C&C member Elly, to benefit the Help A Mother Out.  Our community brought in over 2500 diapers!  Outstanding.  Thank you to all who contributed and spread the word.  Rumor has it Elly is still collecting donations, so bring them in and we will get them to the right place. 
Read more about the beneficiaries.  We cannot say enough about the poor 8 month old wearing the same diaper for 2 days straight. 

Have your own passion you would like the Cubes&Crayons community to support?  Let us know.  Our community loves to rally to support other communities.

From Jen: It's been a real pleasure coming into the office this week. Sibyl has had a great time with Morgan, and she even waved bye-bye to me without tears this morning, which is quite something for her.

I'm so looking forward to next week--when's the last time that was true on a Friday night?
