How to Help

We rely on people like you to donate your gently used or new mattresses and box springs, bedding and sheet sets, and financial support. Volunteering your time and even liking us on social media can help a ton. We could not do this work without the support of the community!

Please consider helping us in one of the following ways:

Financial Support

The work done by Sleepyhead Beds is funded through pickup fees, fundraising events, grants, sponsorships, and individual donations. You’d be surprised how little it takes to bring a “happily ever after” to these children.

Donate Bedding

We accept bedding! Sleepyhead Beds needs your new or used bedding of all sizes. We need bedding to go with each bed we provide, because a bed is just one part of a comfortable night’s sleep. We need Twin, Full and Queen size bedding. We also need Pack-n-Plays for the youngest children on our waitlist. Similar to the mattresses and box springs you donate, the bedding you no longer need will be cherished by the families on our waitlist.

What we accept:

  • Used and new sheets of all sizes
  • Used and new blankets of all sizes
  • New Pillows
  • Pack-n-Plays

What we do not accept:

  • Beds frames or furniture
