Help Fund 200 Beds Before Year’s End
Thanks to your kindness and generosity this year, more than 3,000 children now have a bed to call their own, complete with a cozy quilt, a pillow, a toothbrush, a cherished stuffed animal, and their very own bedtime stories. This has been an exceptionally busy year for the Beds for Kids program. Every day brings a new wave of referrals, and more families are connected with us, particularly as we enter the colder months of the year.

When Amaya and her little brother received their new beds, they couldn’t stop smiling. That night, Amaya carefully arranged her new books and stuffie on her pillow before climbing under her blanket. For the first time in months, she felt safe enough to fall asleep easily.
Amaya’s family had been through so much. After escaping domestic violence, they had to leave everything behind. They’ve moved from place to place over the past year, spending time in shelters and temporary housing before finally finding a place they can call home. Although they are beginning to rebuild their lives, they had no furniture—no beds for the children, no soft place to rest after long, uncertain days.
Thanks to the Beds for Kids program, Amaya and her brother now have warm, comfortable beds of their own. For their mom, Danielle, it means more than comfort—it’s a sign that they are starting over, in safety, with dignity and hope. Will you donate today and make a difference in a family’s life?
Thanks to YOU, children served by the Beds for Kids program receive one of the most essential gifts—a safe, warm, and comfortable place to sleep, giving them the foundation they need to thrive. This is something many of us may take for granted, but it is life-changing for families like Danielle and her children.
As we look toward the new year, we’re launching our end-of-year campaign with a goal of raising $50,000 by December 31. These funds will allow us to continue providing beds to children in our community who desperately need them.
$568 provides a bunk bed and two bedtime bags for siblings or friends in need.
$270 provides a complete bed setup—a bed frame, memory foam mattress, and bedtime bag—for one child in need.
Just $40 covers the cost of a bedtime bag, which includes a sheet set, blankets, a pillow, books, a stuffed animal, and a toothbrush.
Every contribution makes a difference. You can donate online here. With your support, we can let these children know they are seen, cared for, and valued.
With your support, we will be able to continue supporting our community in a lasting way! Please join us by using our online donation form at www.ohaat.org/donate-funds. We need supporters like you to let these children know they matter and to set them up for success.
Again, a HUGE thank you from all of us for helping to make the Beds for Kids program possible. We cannot continue this mission without your help.
