Building Beds, Building Hope: A Day with Sleep in Heavenly Peace in Bend

Sleep in Heavenly Peace is a nonprofit organization that began in 2012 in Twin Falls, Idaho, when founder Luke Mickelson built a bunk bed for a family in need using leftover wood from a home improvement project. He quickly realized the demand for beds was far greater than he imagined. From that humble beginning, SHP has grown into a nationwide movement with over 300 chapters across the U.S. and Canada. Their mission is simple and powerful: “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town.” To date, they’ve delivered more than 273,000 beds to children who previously had none.
