goal

Ten years ago, a simple idea turned into a powerful movement.

My Very Own Bed was founded with one goal: to provide children transitioning out of homelessness with a safe space to sleep and call their own.

Now, 3,650 nights since we started providing new beds and Dream Kits, we’ve reached more than 8,500 children and have witnessed the transformative power of a good night's sleep. Research shows that quality sleep is essential for:

  • Excelling in school with improved focus, memory, and problem-solving.
  • Improving mental health so kids feel happier and less anxious.
  • Physical well-being so kids can grow and build strong immune systems.

Relationships are at the heart of this work. Our community's support has helped impact so many kids’ lives. We are so grateful to the many individuals and organizations who are part of our mission.

We know many more children continue to sleep on floors or share beds, affecting their ability to reach their full potential. As we look ahead to the next 10 years, you and our vibrant community are critical to our success.

Please join us in celebrating our 10-year anniversary with a special gift to mark this milestone.

Together, we can create a community where every child has the foundation for a bright future.
