In Memory of Dick Bere

On September 24, 2024, Crayons lost a legend! Dick Bere, long-time volunteer COO and often considered to be Crayons to Computers’ co-founder, passed away. Dick was an integral part of much of Crayons’ journey over the past 27 years—helping to level the playing field for thousands of teachers and their students in need. We are grateful for his vision and leadership and touched by his kind heart. He will forever be remembered as the patriarch of the Crayons family. He will be missed, but not forgotten.
