If you are able, we are in need of monetary and bedding donations. Please make checks payable to Christiansburg Middle School with a note in the memo line regarding Sleep In Heavenly Peace. There are many SHP chapters across the nation, so giving directly to CMS ensures your donation goes directly to the NRV chapter.

The Christiansburg Police Department is asking for your help giving children in our community a comfortable and safe place to sleep.
Sleep In Heavenly Peace (SHP) is a nationwide organization whose goal is to ensure that no child goes without a comfortable place to sleep. SHP works to provide beds, pillows, mattresses, and bedding for any child in need.
In the spring of 2025 the students and staff at Christiansburg Middle School partnered with SHP to build 40 beds for kids in need right here in the New River Valley.
The next build will take place April 10, 2026. A build begins with a large pile of lumber and lots of power tools, sanders, and bolts. While we can easily provide the manpower to complete the build, we need help funding our build. Each bed, including the bedding, costs approximately $250. That means building 40 beds, will cost approx. $10,000.
Will you help us give the kids in our community a safe, warm and comfortable place to sleep?
