A Bed 4 Me Celebrates 3,000th Delivery To Needy Child.

In a heartwarming milestone, Niceville-based non-profit A Bed 4 Me celebrated the delivery of its 3,000th bed to a child in need. The achievement was marked with a gathering at 3rd Planet Brewing, a local craft brewery known for its support of the community and the non-profit’s mission.

The evening was filled with celebration as volunteers, board members, supporters, and new friends joined together to reflect on the impact A Bed 4 Me has had in the community. The organization, which provides beds, bedding, and pillows to children who lack these essentials, has become a vital resource for families in Okaloosa and Walton counties.

“We are thrilled to be able to share this milestone with the community,” said Diane Freeman, CEO of A Bed 4 Me. “Nothing happens alone and we could not assist families without volunteers and supporters. This is a celebration not only for the beautiful 3,000 children we have met, but it’s a celebration for everyone who keeps the mission moving forward. We cannot say thank you enough. Thank you!”

Founded with the mission of ensuring that every child has a comfortable place to sleep, A Bed 4 Me has grown steadily, supported by the generosity of local residents and businesses like 3rd Planet Brewing. The non-profit’s efforts are especially significant in an area where data from the U.S. Census Bureau, Florida Department of State, and Data USA reveal that more than 10,000 children in Okaloosa and Walton counties live below the federal poverty line.

Listed as a small charity on Charity Navigator, A Bed 4 Me relies heavily on the support of the local community to fulfill its mission. The 3,000-bed milestone is a testament to the power of community collaboration and the dedication of volunteers who work tirelessly to ensure that no child in the area has to sleep on the floor.
