B4K is the best organization I've worked with. They genuinely care about the kids, families, and communities. I will continue to support B4K in its pursuit to build the local community and create a better world.

I first became acquainted with Jenny and Keith several years ago and then quickly volunteered to help Beds for Kids. I could instantly discern how sincere they were in their desire to help others. Their mission is supremely genuine and simple in nature--to provide beds for children in need. More often than not, their own desires are put on hold to stay true to their calling. Both of them are involved at all levels of their nonprofit and the results are amazing. There are no wasted resources, no fancy offices, no fancy letterhead--just Jenny and Keith and a slew of volunteers trying to provide beds to children. Even though their waiting list for beds is long, they never turn away a child in need. If you are looking for a worthwhile, honest, local nonprofit to donate either your time or money, this organization will fit the bill.

I work with a local agency in the Richmond area. I had a client that had not had his own bed for several years. Beds for Kids provided him with an opportunity to have peaceful night's sleep!

I've been out distributing beds with Beds for Kids on two occasions. Both experiences were life giving and rewarding.

I have been working with Beds for Kids for 7-8 years. I have had the chance to see this organization grow and help the community provide beds to hundreds of kids in the Richmond area. Beds for Kids has gone from having a few volunteers to church groups visiting from states across the country. Beds for Kids is an amazing organization and definitely one you should volunteer with! It is an incredible experience whether you are donating a bed or delivering a bed! I am proud to be apart of such an amazing organization and cannot wait to watch more kids in our community receive the help they need!

I had the opportunity to volunteer with Beds for Kids. I went to a clients house who was very in need of help. I helped paint, decorate, and put in new beds in two kids rooms. The family was so happy that someone was able to help her family. Beds for Kids is a great organization that has goal that can help make this world a better place. Jenny and Keith are wonderful people who want to reach out and help so many people! I can't wait to volunteer again for this non-profit.

I had the opportunity to volunteer with Beds 4 Kids one weekend where we not only delivered new beds to a family, we also made over 3 bedrooms for the kids. It was such a fun and fulfilling experience. The kids were so excited when they saw their new rooms! I can't wait to volunteer again!

I have been involved with Beds for Kids in a couple of different ways. Each time it was a very positive and rewarding experience. My son assisted in delivering beds. I personally have helped out purchasing and wrapping Christmas gifts for children. Our small group delivered Christmas gifts . Lastly, Jenny personally spoke to my Sunday School class of children as we made pillows as gifts to be delivered with beds. Events were always well organized, prepared, and professionally run. I was impressed by the positive and enthusiastic attitude of all the volunteers. A truly compassionate, dedicated organization.

The devotion and dedication that Jenny and Keith have for their mission to provide Beds for Kids has been such an inspiration to me. From my perspective I see them working hard to make sure they can provide for all the needs that come their way... Going above and beyond just bedding, they've helped with room makeovers, toys, clothing etc.. I can't speak highly enough of these two wonderful people and just wanted to give a SHOUT OUT for what I believe to be such a cool and necessary charity. Thank you Jenny and Keith for your Beds 4 Kids!!!!

I have been involved with Beds 4 Kids since the start. With Jenny and Keith's leadership it has grown and helped hundreds of children have better sleeping conditions. The generosity of this organization doesn't stop with just beds they also, consistently do entire room makeovers and each year coordinate an event to get, wrap and deliver Christmas presents to those that might not have found anything under the tree. Beds 4 Kids is a wonderful investment in children.

My kids and I recently had to move from a bad living environment with no furniture. I emailed Beds for Kids while we were staying in a hotel room until our new apartment was ready and I honestly was thinking hey it's a long shot but worth a try. The next week we moved into our new place and Jenny emailed me that morning, I gave her a call that same morning and they delivered two twin beds for my boys that day!!! My boys have not had actual beds to sleep on or pillows for that matter (that is what my oldest son was happiest about) and now they wake up with smiles on their faces and it is a huge relief for me. Thank you so much for all you do and keep up the great work!
