The SMART Army showed out in force for kids in Bradley County, Tennessee, last October: Local 5 members partnered with the local chapter of Sleep in Heavenly Peace, building 30 beds for children who need a safe place to sleep.
SHP’s mission is that “no kid sleeps on the floor in our town” — with the help of Local 5, that dream moved one step closer towards reality.
“The nonprofit was very pleased and wants to partner with us again,” reported Local 5 Organizer Hunter Gossett.
Great work, brothers and sisters!
