Bed for delivery

Adam Hovis loads a bed to be delivered Tuesday morning at Slumberland in International Falls.

This holiday season, Slumberland Furniture is working to provide families in need with new beds through its annual Making Homes for the Holidays program.

Throughout the month of December, Slumberland Furniture as a whole will donate about 2,000 mattress and box spring sets to nonprofit partners throughout the communities it serves.

Slumberland Furniture in International Falls is proud to be part of this worthwhile program, according to a news release. This week, seven mattress sets will be donated with the help of Koochiching Community Services and Friends Against Abuse.

In addition, Tony and Leesa Palm of Border Boxes will donate pillows and sheets. And employees at Border State Bank will donate comforters.

“For far too many families, a warm bed has become a luxury. With Making Homes for the Holidays, Slumberland is working to ensure that everyone in our communities gets a healthy nights’ sleep” said Roxanne Sprecco, International Falls Slumberland manager. “And with the generosity of our partners at Border Boxes and the staff of Border State Bank, they help to make it a warm, comfortable nights slumber”.

The Making Homes for the Holidays program began in 1993. Since then, Slumberland has donated more than 30,000 new mattresses and box springs to deserving families.
