"Mommy, sleeping here (at A New Leaf) is so much better than the car," said 9 yr old Amanda. When children have a safe and comfortable place to sleep they do such much better in school.
As you all have heard, studies suggest that a good night's sleep is crucial to brain function, better health and an overall sense of well-being. Our "Bowling for Beds" initiative is all about this. New, comfortable and bacteria free beds (with wipeable surfaces) are our priority.
As you crawl into bed tonight, please remember Amanda and others who need a bed and consider supporting our bowling for beds event. Details below...You could even win a cruise!
