Bunk Beds for Children

It can be difficult for many of our volunteers to see the conditions that many Oglala Lakota families of Pine Ridge call home. Many children have never slept on a bed with a mattress of their own - many sleep on the floor, or in shared beds.

Through our Bunk Beds for Children program, our volunteers and staff construct hundreds of beds each year. Each step of the process - from constructing the wood frame to placing the pillow - is more than just part of "building a bed". You are helping to rebuild a relationship, and provide hope for the future of the Oglala Lakota children of Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.
