Join us and become a Woodworker with Heart

Learn new skills, build community and help kids in need in our town.

Woodworkers with Heart is a 100% volunteer based (non-profit ) organization that builds and delivers beds to children ages 3-17 who do not have a bed. We also build toys that go with the beds and to many kids at Akron Children’s Hospital and thoughout our community. 










 


“What we do is simple:

Getting Kids off the floor and into warm safe beds

+Making kids smile one toy at a time.

I will never forget the look on the kids face when we told them this was their very own bed... I don’t think they ever had a bed of their own
