According to Analisa Warren of adoption agency Caring Family Network, one of their families is in the process of finalizing an adoption, adding to their family, which will soon have a total of six children. The family needed more beds to move these children into their home.Brownwood building trades students and their teacher Cody Smith stepped up and helped make the bunk beds for the family. They also donated materials for their construction.
The bunk beds took a few days to build and were completed on Thursday, according to Smith. He and the students delivered the beds to the family’s home in Brownwood on Friday.
