50 brand new beds for 50 kids in need!🛌💛
Last weekend, we had the privilege of hosting a lemonade stand at St. Vincent de Paul’s Hope to Dream event, and boy, was it a tearjerker🥺
The beds had been delivered and assembled, and the anticipation was building all morning. Then the curtain went up, and the kids scurried around the room looking for the bed with their name on it.
A bed to call their own. A bed that will give them the restful sleep they need to grow, learn, and thrive.
We were so grateful to play a small part in the day by providing each child with a brand new Squishmallow to snuggle with in their new bed. Because really, what kid doesn’t love a new stuffed animal?! 🥹
For some of these kids, this was the first time they would have a bed of their own. No more sharing a bed with a parent, sleeping on the couch, an air mattress, or even the floor. Just a bed that belongs to them. Something so simple that so many of us take for granted.
We left that event with full hearts and a renewed sense of gratitude for all that we have. And once again, we were reminded just how blessed we are to be part of a community that shows up for kids and families who need it most. 💛
Thank you, Saint Vincent de Paul, for allowing us to be a small part of such a beautiful day!
