Help Kids Sleep Better – Volunteer to Deliver Beds with Sleep in Heavenly Peace!
Imagine a child sleeping on the floor — now imagine being the reason that child gets their very own bed. At Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP), we believe no child should go without a bed, yet far too many are.
Our mission is simple yet powerful: get kids off the floor and into beds of their own. We build and deliver complete twin-size bed sets — including a frame, mattress, sheets, pillow, and blanket — to children in need.
Event Description
Join us for an morning of purpose, teamwork, and joy! Together, we’ll
deliver pre-built bed parts and assemble them right in the homes of families in
need. Once assembled, we’ll make each bed sleep-ready — fully dressed with all
the bedding a child needs for a warm, restful night.
No experience necessary — just bring your heart and helping hands. We’ll guide you every step of the way.

Why it Matters
Every bed we deliver means more than just a better night’s sleep — it gives a child a space of their own, a sense of security, and a little piece of dignity. Your time and compassion can change a child’s world.
