After the ghosts and goblins vanish Monday night, local Starbucks will roll out barrels to collect bedding items for local Bend charity, Sleep in Heavenly Peace.
About 25 new beds will be built and outfitted and delivered to Central Oregon homes where kids need beds. The beds will need blankets, sheets, comforters or even better, a “bed in a bag.”

“The beds will be ready to go. We just need donations of what goes with them,” says Joe Myers, head of SHP’s Central Oregon chapter. Donations will be accepted at the eight Starbucks in Redmond and Bend. And with a donation, Starbucks will offer a free drip coffee.
Your donation of bedding supplies will put kids in beds as we move into the holiday giving season.
Free beds are available for any child who needs one. Learn more at www.shpbeds.org/chapter/or-deschutes-co
