Lynnfield's Build A Bed 2024

Posted by Ron Block on Jan. 26, 2024

Save the Date – Lynnfield Rotary’s Build A Bed - May 11, 2024, 9:00 am, Market Street

Build A Bed is returning to Market Street in Lynnfield on Saturday, May 11, 2024. In 2022 Lynnfield Rotary hosted its first Build A Bed project producing ten beds for children in Massachusetts. Last year ninety-one volunteers built twenty-two beds, exceeding our goal.

We are optimistic for 2024 to be our best year.

Lumber, hardware, tools, and expert instruction to construct the bed frames will be provided. People will work in groups of up to four builders.

The beds cost $350 each. Upon completion, a mattress will be added, and the finished product will be delivered to the child’s home.

Individuals, families, and organizations can participate as follows:

One or more beds can be purchased for $350 each. This allows your team to attend the event and build the frames. If you prefer, your donation will allow a bed to be constructed by our volunteers in your name.
