with their charitable programs. One
of those organizations is Sleep in
Heavenly Peace.
"Sleep in Heavenly Peace is an
organization that starts out with the
belief that no child in Arkansas should
be without a bed, they should not have
to sleep on the floor," Taylor said. "They
work with organizations and colleges
like ours to build beds. So, we thought,
we've got the woodworking tools to
do it and we set up assembly line with
about 40 volunteers. So far we've done
it twice and each time in three hours
we made 20 beds. We hope to do it each
spring and fall."
The Integrated Design Lab at
NWACC is preparing students for
design-related fields that require
knowledge of artistic design, form
and function principles, construction
methods and business. Together with
the Fayetteville Chamber's Fab Lab they
are helping our leaders of tomorrow
better prepare for the opportunities
that await them.
