INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Hope to Dream, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing children in need with a bed of their own, has donated 175 complete bed sets to Firefly Children & Family Alliance, helping children across Indiana receive a safe, comfortable place to sleep.
The donation reflects Hope to Dream's ongoing mission to ensure every child has a bed of their own and access to the sleep needed to learn, grow and thrive.
The bed sets, which include a mattress, bed frame, bedding and pillow, will be distributed through Firefly's programs serving children, youth and families throughout Indiana. As one of the state's largest child and family services organizations, Firefly provides a wide range of support, including foster care and adoption services, family preservation programs, behavioral health resources and other services designed to help children and families succeed.
“At Firefly, we know that having a safe, comfortable bed is a simple yet essential need which can make an extraordinary difference in a child’s sense of stability and well-being,” said Tina Cloer, President and CEO of Firefly Children & Family Alliance. “We are incredibly grateful for Ashley Furniture and the Hope to Dream program for their generous donation of beds. Particularly for young people in foster care, who may experience so much uncertainty and transition, a new bed sends a powerful message: you are safe, you are valued, and you belong here.”
The donation will help provide children served by Firefly with a place of their own to rest, recharge and dream. For many families navigating difficult circumstances, access to a bed can make a meaningful difference in a child's daily comfort and overall well-being.
"Every child deserves a safe and comfortable place to sleep, and we're proud to partner with organizations that help make that possible," said Ruthie Bautista, Vice President of Hope to Dream. "Firefly Children & Family Alliance works every day to provide support, stability and care for children and families across Indiana. Through this donation, we're helping ensure more children have a bed of their own and the opportunity for a better night's sleep."
Since its founding in 2010, Hope to Dream has provided more than 200,000 beds to children across the United States and Canada. A portion of proceeds from every mattress purchase at participating Ashley retail locations helps to transform everyday purchases into meaningful support for children in need.
