Operation Scribble
Crayons4Kids will once again team up with WRKR 107.7 Kalamazoo's Rock Station for the 4th annual Operation Scribble. Operation Scribble is a 12 hour radiothon in which we will be accepting donations. This time we are lucky to have a corporate sponsor, Centennial Wireless, and the event will take place at their store in Portage (6414 South Westnedge Avenue). Many guests will be interviewed live on the air. We encourage you to bring in new gifts throughout the day (6am to 6pm) which will be delivered to The Children's Hospital at Bronson in Kalamazoo, MI. In addition Jimmy Johns (next door) will be offering a discount on sandwiches!!! This is also a great idea for groups to participate in (ie Churches, Synogogues, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Schools, etc.) These items will certainly brighten the lives of the children spending the holidays in the hospital. Donations can also be made over the internet through this website!
