Frequently Asked Questions

We prefer that you shop primarily at the warehouse. Larger items that cannot be stored at the warehouse are posted there as well as some items from third-party donors. This page is also a way for families to share items they no longer need. MTaB Marketplace is an extension and not the primary source for providing for the children in your home.

Yes, children are welcomed at the warehouse. We request that you keep a close eye on them as there is not a designated childcare area. We also ask that you assist the children in picking up after themselves. 

You can visit the warehouse when you need items for the children. 

We accept gently used and new items any time during our hours of operation at Warehouse Two. Please drop them off before 1:15pm. We can provide a donation receipt for your tax purposes. We can not accept anything larger than a crib due to space restrictions so please email morethanabed@gmail.com if you have furniture to donate.

No, we do not offer a pick-up service at this time.

No, everything in the warehouse is at no charge to the families we serve.

Please contact us and advise that the child was reunified, so we can update our records and bring back any items that are no longer needed.

 
 

More Than a Bed provides essential items to foster, kinship, and adoptive families and children in a congregate care setting. The children we assist must be in foster care, under the Tribal Division of Child Welfare Services, are under legal guardianship, or have been adopted. We do not assist the biological parents for reunification of their biological children. We also assist teens who are in AYAP, TILP, or group homes as well as teens/adults who are in care and have been diagnosed with developmental disabilities where they cannot live on their own. Legal documentation is required for all the children/adults that we serve. If you are a licensed foster family, we require a copy of your foster license as well as a photo ID/driver’s license of all shoppers.

We are open Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and the first and third Saturday of each month from 8:30 am – 1:30 pm. 

No, but please give yourself enough time to shop as we close at 1:30 pm. To expedite your time, we recommend you know the items you need for the children in your care to include sizes and specifics you are in need of.

The person providing care for that child/adult whose name appears on the legal documentation or if necessary, an assigned caseworker.

Some items have a limit.  Clothing typically does not have a limit, however, we ask that the families take whatever their current need is.  Our guidelines are posted above and in the warehouse for your convenience. 

The MTaB Facebook Marketplace page (only for caregivers) requires the items be picked up directly from the person offering the item. We consider the Facebook page to be an extension of our warehouse, so everything posted is at no cost to the family receiving that item. Please keep in mind that MTaB Marketplace is an extension and not the primary source for providing for the children in your home.

MTaB requires the child sleeping on the top bunk be at least 8 years old and does not have a diagnosed disability. 

More Than a Bed organizes a range of activities annually. Seasonal festivities are enjoyed during winter, while a primary fundraising event often takes place during the spring months. For further details on our events, we encourage visiting our event page.

Yes, we are always looking for individuals and groups to volunteer at the warehouse. Please call (520) 428-5280 or fill out the volunteer interest form here to inquire about volunteering.
