Beds For Kids

09/16/2024

The new school year is just beginning. Kids who sleep well are healthier and more likely to learn, but not all kids are getting the sleep they need.

Beds for Kids has delivered 56 beds to families in the area just this year. Each bed costs $330 and comes with a handmade fleece tie blanket and a new twin mattress, bed frame, pillow, set of sheets, pajama set, stuffed animal, and quilt or comforter.

There are still 27 kids waiting for beds. If you can donate, please visit tlcowatonna.org/donatebfk. Let’s help kids learn, starting with their ZZZs.

🍋 Third graders are working on a lemonade stand business - planning a budget, learning about marketing, and more. They look forward to selling lemonade to the public and donating the proceeds to Community Pathways!

Owatonna High School Chapter of Future Farmers of America. What a great group of young men and women. They dedicated time, time, and energy to making tie-fleece blankets in order to make sure their classmates, friends, and neighbors had a warm blanket to go along with a new bed.

Thank you for thinking of others and taking care of each other. You are appreciated!!

Did You Know........
School-Aged Children need 9-11 hours of sleep each night for healthy growth and development?

Thank you for the support so we can continue to provide a safe, comfortable place for our children to sleep in order to meet this goal.
