FROM 1A
Beds
Sevier’s dream came to
life. By the end of the
day, the team had created
five beautiful wooden
bunk beds ready to be
assembled for local chil
dren.
“I felt great about what
we accomplished,” Sevier
said. “Aside from not
being able to stain our
beds today, we did pro
duce the components to
build our 10-bed goal so
a short work session will
get us ready for delivery.”
After the handcrafted
beds were stained, each
was branded with the
SHP logo. Once a request
comes in for a bed,
Sevier and his team will
deliver the components
and assemble the bunk
bed at the delivery site,
complete with a mattress,
sheets, pillows and com
forters.
While Sevier was
receiving his training at
the SHP headquarters in
Twin Falls in June he had
the opportunity to deliver
his first bed, an unforget
table experience that
reinforced Sevier’s com
mitment as chapter presi
dent.
“We met this young
man. He had fought for
months to have custody
of his own children and
won custody. At what
cost, who knows. But we
walked into this apart
ment and his clothes and
his kids’ clothes were on
the floor in grocery bags.
He was still unloading
his car,” Sevier said.
“The kids weren’t there
but we brought in the
pieces and we put that
bed together with its
beautiful colored sheets,
pillows and comforter.
That was the first stick of
furniture in his new
home, and that was the
day before Father’s Day.”
The memory from that
day stays with Sevier as

Robinson, Veronica Sevier and Skip Sevier.
he looks toward the
future when the
Dawsonville chapter
begins delivering its own
beds.
“The impact of that on
my heart - I have to
believe the impact on the
hearts of any who deliv
ers a bed will be changed
forever,” Sevier said.
After the episode fea
turing SHP aired, there
was an explosion of
interest from people like
Sevier who wanted to
help provide for their
communities.
At the end of 2017,
there were nine chapters
of the nonprofit that built
784 beds, or 392 bunks.
As of Aug. 31, 2018,
there were 99 SHP chap
ters in 36 states and
1,734 beds, or 867 bunks,
have been built.
Each bunk bed, includ
ing materials and bed
ding, only costs $350 to
build and is suitable for
children aged 3 to 17.
Children either sleep
ing on the floor or shar
ing beds with siblings
isn’t an issue that is only
found in the ghetto or in
rural areas, according to
Sevier. Suburban and
urban communities are
also affected.
The Seviers, who
moved to Dawsonville in
September 2017, saw the
need for children’s beds
in the community and
have begun reaching out
to local nonprofit organi
zations such as KARE
for Kids, Dawson County
Family Connection and
the Lumpkin County
Habitat for Humanity to
help increase their
impact.
“We are so excited
about ministering in this
community,” Sevier said.
“Our goal is to bless the
kids.”
The Dawsonville chap
ter currently serves
Dawsonville and
Dahlonega, but Sevier
hopes as the word contin
ues to spread and more
volunteers get involved,
they will be able to
expand their reach into
Hall, Forsyth and Pickens
counties.
Requesting a bed is a
simple process that is
done through the SHP
website. The only
requirement is having a
child, or children, who do
not have their own bed.
