Recently someone asked why we ask the families to give us $10 for a bed when we are donating it to them. The answer is quite simple - dignity. We want the parents to be able to tell the children they bought the bed for them. We then give them a gift card for $10. Simple things make a huge difference.

It is hard to describe how important our volunteers and financial supporters are to our success.

• We had over 60 people help us build the beds in October.
• We had over 35 families donate bedding.
• We had over 20 families make monetary donations to pay for the mattresses.
• We had 15 folks put together the bedding packages.
• We had over 30 people help us load beds at our distribution.

We are so thankful for the support we receive. These folks are obeying the Biblical imperative to “Love They Neighbor”. These efforts will make a lifetime of difference in the lives of these children.

They all make it possible for Beds Equal Dreams to “give every child a chance to dream”.

Today a family of 8 came to get beds. They had been homeless until very recently. The family had nothing in their new apartment but at least they were out of the elements. They showed up in a big truck which we loaded with beds, mattresses, and bedding. The father had been working on the truck as a mechanic and asked to borrow it. Because of the extra space we had an opportunity to provide them with food and furniture that had been previously donated.

Without the truck. Without the support of the BED team. Without the donated food items. Without the donated furniture. Without God's intervention we would not have had an opportunity to bless this family, which blessed us.

You never know who will be put in your path. Today we met a family who God put in our path who had the right size truck for the right size blessing. Sometimes it isn't just about the beds.

If you have built beds with us, donated bedding to us, helped load beds onto trucks or cars with us, or have just prayed for us today you made a child's life better. This Christmas 25 children will sleep in their own bed, many for their first time, because of your willingness to share your heart and resources with Beds Equal Dreams. It takes a whole lot of people to make it happen. Today it showed. . Giving every child a chance to dream.
