The Service Collaborative continues its successful initiative in addressing the extreme level of child poverty through the Beds for Buffalo project. The project provides the basic human need of child sized beds for families in need. The Beds for Buffalo project needs your help building 250 handcrafted, twin beds. Volunteers will assist with the milling, sanding, painting and/or assembly of beds. All volunteers will be trained on these tasks and supervised by volunteer leaders.

TSC will provide the proper instruction, safety review and supervision to support the project. All personal safety devices (goggles and ear protection), tools and equipment required for the project will be provided. TSC encourages all volunteers to dress accordingly. No loose clothing or open toe shoes to ensure safety in woodworking and manufacturing environment. All volunteers must be 18+ years of age and older.
