🖍️ One Box. One Little Bit of JOY. 💜

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and our SHN Orthodontics family is so proud to support Wesley’s Crayon Drive! 💛

Wesley is a childhood cancer survivor who spent 804 days fighting leukemia. After his own journey, he wanted to give back and bring a little extra joy to other kids battling cancer. 🥹💛

His Crayon Drive collects new Crayola 24-count boxes of crayons to donate to the Jessie Rees Foundation (NEGU). The crayons are included in JoyJars that are sent to children fighting cancer.

Because sometimes, something as simple as a box of crayons can give a child a chance to create, imagine, play and just be a kid. 🖍️✨

And we want to help make Wesley’s 3rd Crayon Drive his biggest one yet!

💜 Bring your new Crayola 24-count crayons to SHN Orthodontics through September 30th. 💜 SHN will MATCH every box donated at our office!

So next time you're at Target, grab a box (or a few 😉) and help us spread a little color, creativity and JOY to kids who need it most.

One box can make a BIG difference. 🖍️💛
