RHP#173. Luke Mickelson, Bedmaker and Founder of Sleep in Heavenly Peace
Description
The mission driving Luke Mickelson is 'No Kid Sleeps on the Floor in my Town'
An encounter with a young girl, who had been homeless most of her life, changed the trajectory of Luke's life.
Luke's Charity, Sleep in Heavenly Peace, has now made 300,000 beds for children who previously slept on floors. It's both remarkable and life changing.
This man is such an awesome human with an incredibly infectious energy and I'm so glad we had the opportunity to talk.
