Event Description

Join UUCR and SHP Beds of Montgomery Village for a fun and rewarding afternoon as we come together to build beds for children in need. Your participation will make a meaningful difference in the lives of these children by ensuring they have a comfortable place to rest and sleep. Join as we try to help create a better and more nurturing environment for these deserving young ones. Let's make a positive impact and share the gift of a good night's sleep!

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

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. Join us in this impactful role, where your efforts shape the tangible difference we make in the lives of those in need.

Vibe

Productive, grateful, and content. Do good, be good, feel good.
