We are raising money for My Very Own Bed by participating in their "Steps for Sleep" on April 29, 2023 at DeLaSalle High School - a walk and wellness event focusing on the connection between exercise and sleep. This 501(c)(3) non-profit provides new beds and Dream Kits (bedding, book, and stuffed animal) to children who need them - most of whom have recently moved out of homelessness into more stable housing. The kids receiving beds of their own have been sleeping on the floor or an air mattress or sharing a bed with a parent or sibling. In their new beds, they are sleeping better, which, in turn, helps them heal, grow, and thrive.
Please join us in supporting kids' healthy sleep with a donation of any size to My Very Own Bed today. Every $300 raised will help 1 child receive front-door delivery of a new bed and Dream Kit.
Come and walk with us or please DONATE to support this amazing organization! You can walk around Boom Island and walk through the Wellness Fair on site, or walk anywhere the last week of April to take steps for your own and children's health and wellbeing. AND Ali Quarnstrom will be one of the featured vendors at the Wellness Fair!
