| 0:00.0 | Well, I've spent 50 years looking at the world and I've come to many conclusions and one of them is there is no charity like American charity and I want to talk to you about a special one of those today. |
| 0:10.0 | Hi everybody, I'm Bill Whittle here with Steve Green and Scott. |
| 0:12.0 | Guys, back when I was a just a little wee wisp of a lad, starting at the Miami Planetarium, when I was 13 years old. I had a chance to meet, I think, |
| 0:21.9 | probably the most influential person in my life. His name was Phil. I'm not going to give his last |
| 0:25.9 | name. We married a lovely woman named Bobby. They're my two favorite people in the world, |
| 0:29.3 | aside from my wife, and they're the two best people I know. They live in North Carolina. |
| 0:35.3 | During the flooding a couple years ago, when there was not only a horrible catastrophe, but an extraordinarily slow |
| 0:42.3 | response, federal response to this, |
| 0:44.3 | they discovered an organization that they've gone on to lead open a chapter of. And this organization is called Sleep in Heavenly Peace. |
| 0:53.3 | And the website is SHPBeds.org. |
| 0:58.7 | So what this charity is doing is it solving a problem I didn't even know that we had. As it turns out, in the United States, there are millions of kids that don't have their own beds. They don't have a place. |
| 1:12.8 | They sleep on the floor. They sleep on the floor because that's all their parents can afford. |
| 1:18.1 | The motto of this organization is no kids sleeps on the floor in our town. And let me tell you |
| 1:23.8 | why I want to bring this particular charity to your attention. Like all charities, |
| 1:28.9 | they're certainly happy to take your money and you can pledge a bed for specific individuals, |
| 1:34.3 | a specific build. But the thing that I think appeals to many people out there is this. What they're |
| 1:40.2 | really looking for is they're looking for volunteers because they build a mass |
| 1:45.7 | design bed. They've got partners with, I think it's Lowe's and other major partners and |
| 1:51.2 | and cert, I think. And so they will do the equivalent of an Amish barn raising and I'll just |
| 1:57.1 | show you some video here, but be sure to check this video out because there's testimonials |
| 2:00.2 | here that really help as well. But they'll put together, you know, 30, 40 people out there in an afternoon. |
| 2:05.2 | They'll build a, you know, 100 beds, maybe something like that, personally deliver them to people in need. |
