Bedz 4 Kidz

A new project in 2021-2022, Bedz 4 Kidz, the goal of this project is to provide children with a bed, a basic necessity that many are not given and may result in separation of children from their parents. We are partnering with the non-profit organization, The Dream Center, to fund and participate in an annual bed build where JA members will help build and assemble the beds, hygiene kits, and bedding. These beds will be stored by The Dream Center and delivered upon request to needy homes in our area.

In Spring 2022, with the help of Crown Club, Junior Auxiliary helped build 40 beds. Each child that receives a bed receives the bed frame, a twin mattress, sheets, pillow, pillow case, comforter, and a hygiene kit. JA has participated in multiple bed placements with The Dream Center since our last bed build and plans to continue this participation and partnership with the Dream Center.
