🛏️ Mattress Sale Fundraiser — Saturday, February 28, 2026
10:00 AM – 4:30 PM | St. John’s Gym

St. John’s Summer Program (SJSP) is hosting a one-day mattress sale to support an incredible cause.

All proceeds will help feed hungry children at our sponsored school in Chaone, Malawi.
Buy a mattress… and you can help feed several children for an entire year!

Don’t need a mattress?

You can still make a big impact.

Consider purchasing one to donate to St. Mary’s Ryken’s Caritas Program, which assists local families transitioning from homelessness to stable housing. Your donation can help provide a fresh start with dignity — including a bed to sleep on.

What will be available?

• 30+ name-brand mattress models
• Bed frames
• Mattress pads
• Sheets
• Pillows
• And more

The St. John’s Gym will be transformed into a full showroom where you can test mattresses in person. With no retail overhead, prices are deeply discounted. All mattresses are made to order and shipped directly to your home, with white-glove delivery available.

Please help us spread the word!
Buy a mattress. Feed hungry children. Bless a family in need.

Join us February 28th and support SJSP, Mary’s Meals, and Caritas — and make a meaningful difference.
