Thank you for your past support of the Beds for Kids Project!

As you know, Beds for Kids is one of SPD’s cornerstone programs, now heading into its 10th year of

providing beds to kids in our community who don’t already have them.

The mission of Beds for Kids is simple, straightforward, and has never changed: It’s to provide beds to

children in the Seattle community who need them. It’s hard for most of us to imagine what it would be

like to not have a bed to sleep in at night, but that is the unfortunate reality for too many of our young

people. We think that beds are a basic human need, just like food and water, and we’re excited to

support this effort to ensure that Seattle’s kids sleep in comfort.

Countless studies demonstrate the important role sleep plays in the development of our kids. Getting a

good night’s rest can positively impact mental health, cognitive performance, learning and memory, and

even happiness.

With your generous contributions, this program has provided more than 2,300 beds to Seattle kids over the past nine years. This year, we would like to help SPD provide beds to 250 more kids, and need $65,000 by August 31, 2023, to make it happen. Will you help us get there?

Please make a gift today to help us reach our $65,000 goal by August 31, 2023, so that Seattle police

officers can provide cozy beds for local kids currently sleeping on the floor. Thank you for helping us carry

forward this important legacy founded in 2014 by Seattle Police Department Officer Jeremy Wade (now

retired) and Officer Ryan Gallagher! No donation is too small!
