Sleep in Heavenly Peace Volunteer Event
+ Winter Coat Drive
Saturday, November 5, 2022 | 8:30am - 12:30pm
Let’s kick off the holiday season with a fun volunteer event to benefit our local kids in need! Bring your friends and family for a morning of building beds for the local Sleep in Heavenly Peace chapter to distribute.
The goal of Sleep in Heavenly Peace is to build as many beds as possible before Christmas, to ensure that all children who need beds throughout the winter months can be provided with one. On average, they deliver 8 beds a week with the help of volunteer events like this.
Join us there!

A note from Sleep in Heavenly Peace:
"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." To learn more about Sleep in Heavenly Peace visit their website here.
