Gardner’s Mattress & More donated 45 new twin and full mattresses over the holiday season to assist Off The Streets Lancaster with their efforts to help those in need find and furnish housing. Co-owner Ben McClure says, “These mattresses will help the families in need get the sleep they deserve.”

All-volunteer nonprofit Off The Streets helps homeless families and individuals get off the streets and into permanent housing. They work with local service agencies to identify those that need help and provide a security deposit sent directly to the landlord plus basic furnishings and household items. The transition from homelessness to a furnished room or apartment can take place within a day or two.
