New Beds For Tornado Victims

The three team was in Alabama this month to support Simmons Bedding Company and retailer Bedzzz Express as they provided 188 new mattresses to families in Birmingham and Tuscaloosa affected by April's tornadoes. Ed Sanders of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition joined the team in Birmingham to help distribute beds. Local relief organizations, The Christian Services Mission in Birmingham and the Temporary Emergency Services in Tuscaloosa, were instrumental in helping identify and locate families in need. Throughout the two-city relief effort days, recipients shared stories of coming together to rebuild their communities and aid neighbors who lost everything. One ofour favorite inspiring stories was of two local families who have raised enough money to rebuild 15 homes for victims free of cost.
