ONE HOUSE AT A TIME

2012 ANNUAL REPORTORGANIZATION MISSION

To help families establish (or reestablish) self-sufficient lives by providing them with the necessitiesof a functional home environment.

BEDS FOR KIDS PROGRAM

One House at a Time (OHAAT) began the Beds for Kids program in 2000 as a supplementary programrun alongside its furniture bank. In 2011 OHAATs Board of Directors phased out its furniture bankand began focusing all efforts on the Beds for Kids program because it fills a critical need for a more vulnerable population.

During bed deliveries, OHAAT volunteers often find children sharing sleeping bags on the floor, lyingon mattresses with springs sticking out, and crowded onto sofas with mutliple family members.Theyve heard story after story about house fires, bed bug infestations, and parents losing custody of

their children solely because they cant provide proper bedding. But beyond appearances and anec-dotes are more serious implications. Uncomfortable sleeping environments reduce and interruptsleep, which puts children at risk of cognitive and immune dysfunction. Sleep deprivation has long been associated with lower academic performance because fatigue decreases alertness, memoryformation, and overall productivity. Sleep deprivation also weakens a childs immune system bydecreasing white blood cell count. The Beds for Kids program serves disadvantaged children who aredesperately in need of healthy minds and bodies. Most recipients are from families facing homeless-ness, domestic violence, or long-term financial burdens, such as unemployment, illness, or disability.

Every child in the Beds for Kids program receives a new bed and bed kit (sheets, blankets, and depend-ing on inventory, a mattress cover, pillow and pillow protector), which is gender and age specific.OHAAT has bulk purchasing agreements with bedding manufacturers, and bed kit items are donated,sorted, and packaged by individuals and partner organizationschurches, social groups, and businesses. Both the beds and bed k its are delivered direc tly to the homes of children in need, thanksto OHAATs 15-foot box truck and growing body of volunteers.

Helping families establish self-sufficient lives.
