On Saturday, December 2nd, 2017, members from Central Bucks Rotary (pictured below) delivered 10 beds and bedding for the OHAAT (One House at a Time) Beds For Kids program. OHAAT (www.ohaat.org) delivers beds, bedding, and tools that encourage healthy bedtime habits like books and toothbrushes, directly to the homes of children in need.
In order to qualify for Beds for Kids, children must be between ages 2 and 20 and reside in a household whose income is below the US poverty threshold. Many of the children in the program are transitioning from shelters or other temporary housing; some are recovering from catastrophes such as fires or floods; and others have been sleeping without a bed their whole lives.
Every child in the program receives a new bed and a bedtime bag, which contains a set of sheets, a blanket, several books, and a toothbrush.
