One House at a Time: Beds for Kids (OHAAT) is a Good360 nonprofit partner that works with more than 250 Philadelphia community agencies to provide children ages 2 to 20 living below the federal poverty line with a complete bedtime kit. Each kit contains a bed frame, mattress, sheets, blankets, pillows, socks, toothbrushes, stuffed animals, and books. These items are donated to the nonprofit by various community members or sourced from other organizations, such as Good360. Because OHAAT can get donated products from Good360, they can spend their funding on other essential items.
Recently, OHAAT sourced 256 mattresses from Good360 provided by corporate donor Tempur Sealy International. OHAAT plans to use these mattresses in their bedtime kits during a December distribution event, right in time for the holidays. OHAAT will give the mattresses to children in their community that currently do not have a comfortable place to sleep.
“Thanks to Good360 and Tempur Sealy International, more children are sleeping soundly in their new beds, improving their health and daily life,” said Sara Baumgardner, Operations & Volunteer Coordinator at Beds for Kids.
Tempur Sealy International’s generous contribution and Beds for Kids’ tireless efforts resulted in 256 children enjoying a new, safe place to sleep.
