‘No kid should sleep on the floor’
Gary and Nikki Akin build beds for kids.
Why?
“I will never forget the smile of the 13-year-old when we delivered his bed. He had never had a bed of his own. It is very heartwarming and particularly rewarding when you see that smile,” said Gary Akin.
Gary and Nikki Akin are co-presidents of the Houston Northwest chapter of Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP), a national not-for-profit that builds beds for kids who don’t have them.
