This great guy was thrilled the bedroll has a hip pad for extra cushioning. He had hurt his hip and said sleeping on concrete under the bridge was hard on him. I am so happy to help him out!

I’m looking for people to help me make plastic yarn so I can even more bedrolls. Please message me if you are interested. 😊

“That’s really nice!” she said of the bedroll as I was walking near her with it in tow. She got pretty emotional when I asked her if she wanted it, saying that she considers it an early 80th birthday present.

I am so thankful for SunRaising Foundation and LMCU’s support of the Bags to Bedrolls Project. Now, with the help of awesome volunteers, I can make even more Comfort & Joy Bedrolls!

Thank you to Dolly at ShowerUp Tampa Bay, a wonderful organization that provides mobile showers and personal care for those experiencing homelessness, for distributing one of our bedrolls to this beautiful couple. Another one is coming their way!

This sweet gentleman already has a bedroll he loves, but took this one for his tent mate at Tampa Hope, a homeless shelter run by the City of Tampa and Catholic Charities, Diocese of St. Petersburg. Please message us if you would like to help make more bedrolls for members of this community.

These are the bag donations received in just the last week! Thank you, SunRaising Foundation, for leading such a fantastic collection effort.

Now who would like to help us convert these simple plastic grocery bags into comfortable, waterproof bedrolls for Tampa Bay’s homeless population?
