7 Years of Integrity: SHP’s Commitment to Transparency Shines Through

February 13, 2025

When you support a charitable organization, you want to know your contribution makes a real difference. That’s why we’re incredibly proud to announce that Sleep in Heavenly Peace has earned the Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid’s GuideStar for the seventh consecutive year. But what does this really mean for our supporters and the children we serve?

Simply put, it means we’re keeping our promise. When we say that 95 cents of every dollar donated goes directly to building and delivering beds for children in need, we mean it. This remarkable efficiency rate isn’t just a number—it represents real beds and a lasting impact on the lives of the children we serve and those we have the potential to serve in the future.

Maintaining the Platinum Seal of Transparency for seven consecutive years demonstrates our unwavering commitment to our donors and the children we serve. We take pride in ensuring that 95 cents of every dollar donated goes directly toward providing beds for children, making a significant difference in the lives of those children experiencing bedlessness. This recognition reinforces our dedication to both fiscal responsibility and mission growth.

The Platinum Seal from Candid’s GuideStar represents more than just transparency—it’s a testament to the trust our supporters place in us and our commitment to honoring that trust. 

Since our humble beginnings in 2012 in Twin Falls, Idaho, we’ve grown into an international movement with over 330 chapters. Together, we’ve reached an incredible milestone: more than 250,000 beds delivered to children who were sleeping on floors, couches, shared beds, or other suboptimal conditions. That’s a quarter of a million kids who now have a safe, comfortable place to dream.

We’re not just building beds—we’re building hope, one community at a time. Our volunteers regularly tell us that the experience of building and delivering beds changes their perspective on what it means to serve their community. There’s something powerful about knowing that the bed you helped build will give a child a better night’s sleep, perhaps for the very first time.
