LocalNews1 reports Sleep in Heavenly Peace launched a volunteer chapter serving the Waynesboro area
LocalNews1 reported the launch of a Sleep in Heavenly Peace chapter in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania. The six-person local team plans to build and deliver complete twin beds at no cost to children ages 3 through 17 in the Waynesboro and Greencastle-Antrim school districts, with a longer-term goal of serving all of Franklin County. The report said a local business owner donated warehouse space and that the chapter had purchased equipment and supplies.
Status matters. This page records a sourced development, not a completed No Halo investigation. An allegation is not a finding. Dismissals, settlements, judgments, corrections and final outcomes remain distinct.
Donor relevance
Why this matters
The new chapter extends a direct-service program into an additional under-covered regional market. Its donated workspace and volunteer-led model could allow local contributions to translate into beds, mattresses and bedding for children who otherwise sleep on floors, couches or shared beds.
Attribution
Who reported or established this
LocalNews1 reporter Nancy Mace reported the chapter launch and attributed service-area, staffing and expansion plans to local chapter president John Baker.
Evidence limits
What remains unverified
No Halo has not established how many eligible children are in the chapter’s service area, verified the value or terms of the donated warehouse space, reviewed the chapter’s finances, or confirmed how many beds it has delivered. The local chapter operates under the national charity’s legal identity rather than as a separately verified tax-exempt organization.
Right of reply
Organization response
Chapter president John Baker said the team initially plans to serve two school districts and hopes to expand across Franklin County over several years. He said each delivery includes the frame, mattress, bedding and pillow, with volunteers making the bed in the recipient’s home.
