FAMILY SUPPORT
Need a Bed for Your Child?
Here's how our referral process works and what to expect.
How to Get a Bed
We provide beds and Dream Kits to children through referrals from partner organizations. Partner organizations submit referrals directly to My Very Own Bed on behalf of families they serve.
As a small organization, we prioritize delivering beds to families referred by our partners.
Step 1
Start with a school, social worker, healthcare provider, shelter, or community organization you're already connected with.
Step 2
Partner Organization Submits a Referral
Your partner organization can submit a referral directly to My Very Own Bed on your behalf.
Step 3
Next Steps
Our team reviews referrals and coordinates directly with eligible families regarding bed delivery.
Important to Know
Families are referred to us by our referral partner organizations. Our partners submit referrals for new beds on behalf of families directly to My Very Own Bed.
As a small organization, we prioritize providing beds to families referred to us by our partners. Please note that this list includes the public school districts of Anoka-Hennepin district #11, St. Paul Public Schools district #625, and Hopkins district #270.
If you’re connected to one of these organizations, please ask your point of contact about requesting a bed. If you aren’t connected to any of these organizations, we will not be able to provide beds for your family at this time.
You're Not Alone
Every child deserves a safe and comfortable place to sleep. Our referral partners help connect families with resources and support throughout their communities.
If you're connected to a partner organization, we encourage you to reach out and begin the conversation.
