HUNTSVILLE, AL – Hope to Dream partnered with Red Mountain Retail, Inc., an Ashley licensee, to deliver an astronomical surprise to 24 children from the Boys & Girls Club of North Alabama during a special event at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center on September 11. This exciting educational outing to explore space and science turned into an unforgettable moment when children learned they would each receive their very own bed, complete with a twin mattress, bed frame, bedding and pillow.  

"I see every day how important it is for our youth to have the foundation they need to thrive. A good night’s rest is more than just sleep; it fuels their ability to focus in school, build confidence, and dream about the future. Thanks to Ashley and Hope to Dream, our kids are receiving not only new beds, but also a powerful reminder that they are valued, supported, and capable of achieving great things,” stated Angelia Martin, Director of Boys & Girls Club of North Alabama, Searcy Club. 

Established in 2010, Hope to Dream has been dedicated to the mission of providing every child with a good night’s sleep. Since inception, more than 190,000 children have received a brand-new bed. By providing these essential sleep resources, Hope to Dream aims to set children on the path to a healthier and more productive life.  The program continues to grow through a portion of proceeds from every mattress purchase at participating Ashley retail locations being donated to Hope to Dream.  

“Hope to Dream is one of our favorite initiatives because it goes beyond giving—it creates comfort, rest, and a brighter future for children in need,” stated Woody Marks, owner of Red Mountain Retail. “We love being part of something that reminds us how powerful a simple gift, like a good night’s sleep, can be. It’s more than amazing—it’s life-changing.”
