ASHLAND, Ky. — The Neighborhood’s partner Members Choice Credit Union is leading the way in our community for the Ashland Build A Bed Program. You can now apply for a bed, or sign up to be a volunteer. Check out their website at ashlandbuildabed.org for more information.

Many Kentucky children are living in homes with not enough beds or none at all. The Build-A-Bed project is designed to promote healthy bedtime rituals, improve the quality of sleep, create happier days, brighter dreams and more opportunities for a lifetime of success.

The Kentucky Build-A-Bed project began in 2009 when two Kentucky AmeriCorps Programs, Success Corps and FRYSC Corps, built 57 beds for children in their service region. Since 2009, the project has gained much momentum.
