The furniture bank located in Scottsdale, AR is launching a buy a kid a bed campaign. They're targeting grandparents who are on fixed incomes that are the primary caretakers for their grandchildren. 5,000 bunk beds for the kids is the goal. Way to go furniture bank!

For that, the couple is launching a "Buy a kid a bed," campaign, raising money to purchase 5,000 children's bunk beds in five years.

It takes $60 to pay for half a bunk set. From now, until the end of the year, a private donor has agreed to match any financial donations to the furniture bank up to $25,000.

The organization has received some big-time honors, too.

Recently, the Piscopos have noticed a new customer group coming in, too - grandparents who are caretakers of their grandchildren. These people, often on fixed incomes, don't have the money to buy new bedroom sets for their grandchildren, Jim said.
