Project Title: No Kids Sleep on the Floor in Our Town! FL-Palm Beach West 2024
Project Description:

Sleep in Heavenly Peace chapters utilizes community volunteers to build and deliver twin-size beds (that can be bunked) to kids aged 3-17 sleeping on the floor or in other uncomfortable situations. The volunteers deliver these beds, fully furnished (frames, mattresses, sheets, pillows, and blankets) to children in need; they partner with local organizations, churches, businesses, and community members to build them!

Chapter leadership and their core team show volunteers how to take a pile of wood and construct twin bed frame components with drills, sanders, and saws. SHP’s simple design is easy to follow and requires no woodworking experience. During SHP community "Build Days," volunteers learn about the organization and the need in "their town" and take pride as they transform piles of lumber into twin bed frames. Following each build day, volunteers deliver the beds to local families that requested/qualified for one. SHP Build and Delivery Days facilitate community engagement by providing a fun and practical opportunity to volunteer their time.
