Add More than peach crayons to your school supply list!
Premium MORE THAN PEACH™ Rainbow and Multicultural Skin Color Crayons are now available! ’They’re all ‘skin color’!’
Bellen’s brand is none other than More Than Peach™, a line of diversified skin color crayons! More Than Peach™ was created two years ago by then 8-year-old Bellen to ‘get multicultural crayons in the hands of every student.’ She began donating a variety of products and went on to create her very own acclaimed More Than Peach brand to achieve a bigger mission: advancing the empathy, leadership, and creativity for all students — excluding no one.
Though More Than Peach™ has now influenced even the “big brand” to tune in, Bellen pioneered the More Than Peach mission to get multicultural skin color crayons in the hands of all students while keeping all in mind. And part of what makes More Than Peach special is that it was born from the innocence of a child — with everyone in mind — to recognize and dignify the voices, contributions, and talent of all. Browse the site to learn more about the More Than Peach movement and how to be involved!
