Tonight, 20,000 Metro Detroit children will go to sleep without a bed
Their choices are heartbreaking — sharing a crowded mattress, sleeping on a sofa, or lying directly on the cold floor.
Every child deserves the comfort, safety, and dignity of a bed of their own.
This holiday season, you can help make that happen.
The Challenge
Your gift provides more than furniture. It provides dignity, comfort, and a good night’s sleep.
Across Metro Detroit, too many children face bedtime without a bed to call their own.
-
The Furniture Bank’s 1,000 Beds Challenge aims to change that — one bed at a time.
-
November 10 - December 31, 2025 Our goal is to fund 1,000 complete twin bed sets — including a new mattress, foundation, pillow, and bedding.
Follow Our Progress
Watch our custom progress meter grow as the community comes together to give the gift of sleep.
Amplify Your Impact!
Every 9 beds funded = 1 bed donated by Serta Restokraft
