On Sunday, July 8th, 2007 Sleep America kicked off its 10th anniversary, with the help of Rich Bauer and The United Phoenix Fire Fighters Association, by giving away 150 beds to underprivileged Arizona residents.
The �Dare to Dream� event was focused on giving those in need of a bed a chance to enhance the quality of their lives through products that significantly improve the quality of their sleep. The beds were given away as a part of this unique, innovative event and were donated by Sleep America vendors Kingsdown, Sealy, Simmons, Spring Air and Tempurpedic. Arizona residents went to any one of the 44 Sleep America locations to pick up an entry form or to www.sleepamerica.com to submit an entry form.
Sleep America President Debbie Gaby said, �For ten years the community has been here to support our business. On our anniversary we wanted to continue to support our community by making sure those in need of a good night�s rest can now get one with the right bed this holiday season!�
Director of Community Programs at the United Phoenix Fire Fighters Association Rich Bauer said, �The United Phoenix Fire Fighters decided to join in on this promotion because it is a wonderful thing to do for the underprivileged in our community. Many times people live paycheck to paycheck and lose sleep about paying rent, let alone worrying about a comfortable bed to sleep in. Sleep America is doing something to help people who otherwise couldn�t even DREAM of affording a new bed.�
All entries had to be submitted by September 3rd, 2007
