WILLIAMSVILLE, N.Y. — The local chapter of a group called Sleep in Heavenly Peace had a goal of building 100 new beds and delivering another 75 to families in need during a Saturday event at Eastern Hill Mall.
Sleep in Heavenly Peace believes there may be as many as 10,000 children in Buffalo who don't have a decent bed to sleep in each night.
They went to work Saturday with assembly line-like precision.
"We've laid out the process so it's very safe, very simple straight forward and productive, so we can get a lot done in a short period of time," Jerry Sheldon of Sleep in Heavenly Peace Buffalo told 2 On Your Side.
Added volunteer Carol Battista: "We're from the City of Buffalo, the City of Good Neighbors, and we love to help people, especially children."
About 200 volunteers participated in Saturday's event.
