SLEEPING CHILDREN AROUND THE WORLD

The mission of Sleeping Children Around the World is to provide bed kits to children in need throughout the developing world. This is carried out through free-will donations and partnerships with volunteers around the globe. A US $40 donation provides a bed kit which includes a mat or mattress, pillow, sheet, blanket, mosquito net (if applicable), set of clothes, a towel and school supplies.

Guiding Principles of Sleeping Children Around the World

• We believe that it is the basic right of every child to have a comfortable night’s sleep.
• 100% of all bedkit donations go directly to its contents. No portion is used to pay for operating expenses.
• We provide hope and joy and aim to preserve the dignity of each child we help.
• We verify that each bedkit is received by a child in need.
• All donations are of “free will” giving. We will not undertake telemarketing, door to door appeals, mass mailings or use professional fundraisers to help our cause.
• Kiwanis family members are asked to support this initiative by making monetary donations from Aktion Clubs to Sleeping Children Around the World.
