Betty White Campaigns For Bedtime Stories & Healthy Sleep For Kids

From her starring role on the TV Land sitcom Hot In Cleveland to her side-splitting appearance on Saturday Night Live, there’s never a dull moment when entertainment icon/animal rights activist Betty White is in the atmosphere. But have you heard about her current project? The octogenarian is teaming up with national campaign that aims to teach young people the importance of bedtime stories and getting a good night’s sleep.

At the ripe old age of 88-years-young, Betty has joined The Bedtime Stories Project to promote healthy sleep for children. The beloved comedienne has partnered with SleepBetter.org and the Carpenter Company to raise awareness of how bedtime stories can help children sleep better at night. Betty even read a few stories to schoolchildren in an event at the California Science Center in Los Angeles on Wednesday.
