Helping Children in Need Sleep Better
All children deserve a safe, comfortable place to lay their heads. In Idaho and across the US, too many boys and girls go without a bed—or even a pillow—to sleep on. These children end up sleeping on couches, blankets, and even floors. This can affect their happiness and health.
That’s where Sleep in Heavenly Peace comes in. We’re a group of volunteers dedicated to building, assembling and delivering top-notch bunk beds to children and families in need. Our organization has grown steadily over time, and we’re working on opening more chapters in different states to serve more people.
How They Started
Sleep in Heavenly Peace had its start like many other charities, in a garage. It was Christmas time, a time of joy and happiness, a time of giving and love, but also a time of bitter, cold weather and snowstorms. A project, that was started with the build of one bed for a single family developed into something a whole lot more. With wood left over from the first bunk, another idea was created. “Who else could benefit from this bunk”?
A simple post on Facebook sparked an unexpected response. What was thought would be a litter of requests from needy families, turned into a litany of local people eager to help and volunteer. The generosity of these volunteers was so surprising that it was no longer a search for one who needed a bed, but a question of how many beds we could provide. From there, the idea grew into reality. We can make a difference.
We are now a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Our federal ID is 46-4346568.
Funded by an endowment from Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church and thanks to The Andersons, Inc. Plant Nutrient Division we'll be hosting this event in the drive thru lumberyard area of the former Maumee General Store.
Bedding Drive-thru (no need to get out of your car)
Bed building (drop of your spouse or kids while you shop for them) NOTE: material is being cut and sanded by Toledo Public Schools students from trades programs at Waite, Rogers and Start prior to the event so this will be a clean activity to participate in.
Santa will be on site for photos (and to inspect what our elves build)
Come out an join them to help kids in NW Ohio and SE Michigan get a bed of their own. We are in need of volunteers of all ages and abilities and always need new twin size bedding and pillows.
