Where will you sleep tonight? Whether it is in your own home or not, you will likely rest your head on a pillow and sleep comfortably in a bed. But not everyone has this opportunity. eMite learned of children who do not have beds to sleep in, and we are answering the call to help!
PROJECT 21 - BED FOR EVERY HEAD IS TAKING PLACE IN NEBBI, UGANDA. WE ARE BUYING BEDS WITH MATTRESSES FOR 200 ORPHANS. WE WILL BE PROVIDING A SOFT PLACE TO LAND AT THE END OF THE DAY FOR KIDDOS WHO ARE IN NEED OF IT.
For Project 21, eMite is partnering with Acres of Hope, an organization that offers a hope-filled future for orphans and vulnerable children by equipping them with basic needs such as food, shelter, medical care, and education.
Currently, many children in the orphanage are sharing twin beds or having to sleep on the ground leading to sleep deprivation. But NOW we have the opportunity to change their sleeping arrangements and give these children a better night's rest. Good sleep promotes growth, supports a healthier heart, and helps strengthen the immune system against germs. It also increases children's attention span and improves their ability to learn.
