Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP) is a volunteer 501(c)3 charitable organization who builds bunk beds for local children who are are sleeping on floors, couches, and other uncomfortable situations without beds. In the Summer of 2019, The UNFoundation funded SHP and they have won again! Not only do they deliver these beds, equipped with mattresses, sheets, pillows and a blanket to kiddos in need, but they partner with organizations, churches, businesses, and individuals to build them at events called Build Days! Follow them on Facebook to keep up with the next build day.
How do we know the beds are going to the kids that really need them? All applicants are qualified through the national selection committee. They have an online application here. Our $3,000 funded even more beds so fewer Chattanooga kids are sleeping on the floor or a couch. The goal? No kid sleeps on the floor in our town.
