When a bed is much more than "just a bed." ❤️
Volunteers for the Hill Country chapter of Sleep in Heavenly Peace construct single and bunk beds for kids who don’t have a bed. Read the story in the October magazine and now online! The group’s next bed build is November 15, 2025 in Horseshoe Bay.

Since 2022, the TX-Hill Country chapter of Sleep in Heavenly Peace has built and delivered almost 350 beds like these to youth ages 3-17 across Burnet, Llano, Lampasas, and Blanco counties. The volunteer organization's goal is to provide beds for kids who don't have them.
