Before
This family had been given a double bed and a single bed but no mattresses. There needed to be space for all 4 children.
A 3 year old girl was sleeping in this toddler bed in the parents’ bedroom. She needed to share the other bedroom with her siblings.
After
We first brought in a solid wood bunk bed with new mattresses, linens and comforters. The 3 year old would sleep in the bottom bunk while her older brother slept in the top bunk. We provided a mattress, pillows and linens for the double bed. Now the 5 year old twins sleep there.
Because there was no room for a desk, one of our volunteers sewed an excellent bag for school supplies.
There was space just outside the bedroom door to hold this lovely vintage dresser for the children to share.
