— Record Revenue and Exceptional Financial Stewardship —
Total revenue reached $33.9 million in 2025, a significant increase over 2024, with meaningful gains across donations-in-kind, grants, chapter fundraising, and online giving. In 2025, 95.1% of all expenses supported program services — a program expense ratio that ranks among the strongest in the nonprofit sector, ensuring donor contributions are directed where they matter most: into the hands of children in need.
For every $1 donated, SHP chapters generated $1.28 in mission value — multiplying impact through volunteers, partnerships, and operational efficiency.
SHP received 35,485 donations during the year, while the average gift increased 6.7% to $744.05. Donor loyalty remained strong, with 25.11% of supporters giving more than once during the year, and the lifetime value of a donor grew 10.5% to $2,117.69.

In August of 2025, SHP surpassed the 300,000 beds delivered milestone — a historic achievement for an organization that started in a founder's garage just over a decade ago.
During the year, 47 new chapters were trained and launched, contributing to more than 388 active chapters serving communities across the country. More than 166,000 volunteers gave an extraordinary 558,135 hours of their time, conducting 7,343 build and delivery events nationwide.

The Guardian of the Mission Award (GOMA) — SHP's highest recognition — was presented to Bob and Ingrid Hirschi of SHP – TN, Chattanooga, whose chapter leadership has inspired countless volunteers and donors to join SHP's mission, creating a ripple effect of positive change throughout southeastern Tennessee and northern Georgia.

— Strategic Investment in Long-Term Capacity —
In October 2025, Sleep in Heavenly Peace completed its first acquisition — Sterling Mattress Factory — a strategic step forward in strengthening operational infrastructure and gaining greater control of the supply chain.
