Role
As a volunteer builder with SHP Beds, your role is instrumental in fabricating beds for children in our community. Engage in hands-on tasks such as sanding, drilling, staining, and branding, transforming raw lumber into finished pieces of comfort. Your craftsmanship directly contributes to providing a fundamental need for children who currently sleep on the floor. Whether you're a seasoned builder or new to the tools, your dedication in the workshop plays a vital part in the creation of beds that carry not just functionality but also the warmth of care and compassion.

Purpose
Addressing the silent yet widespread issue of childhood bedlessness, we invite you to be a part of creating a meaningful impact by crafting beds for children in need. These beds are destined for families in Montgomery County, ensuring that each child receives a complete set, including a bed, mattress, pillows, and sheets. Upon delivery, each child gains more than just a bed – they now have a secure and comfortable space to call their own. Join us in making a tangible difference and bringing warmth and comfort to the lives of these children
