This is our annual nationwide build where all of the chapters participate the same day to see how many kids we can get off the floor!
During our build events, we build twin bed components from raw wood. These include headboard, footboard, side rails and slats for the mattress. We setup multiple stations including cutting, drilling, sanding, assembly, staining and branding.
It takes a village! We need a lot of volunteers and I hope you are able to join us. Children are welcome to help as well, with parent supervision.
Closed toe shoes are required.

Mission Statement
We build and deliver twin beds to kids 3-17 years old that do not have a bed. Our mission is that NO KID SLEEPS ON THE FLOOR IN OUR TOWN!
Description
The Denton chapter was started by Mike Ferrell in 2022. In 2023 we delivered around 60 beds. We are half way though the year in 2024 and we have surpassed that. It's not enough. We currently have a waiting list for 500+ beds and we have our remaining 8 beds scheduled for delivery this week. We need more volunteers, more donations, more leaders. We need to grow to meet the needs of the kids in our community.
