Many churches have free mattress and bedding programs. St. Vincent de Paul or Salvation Army are good for a start.

In the city where I live (tho it's too far to be of help for you) one of our area churches runs the "Sleep in Heavenly Peace" program that builds and delivers wooden twin beds and mattresses for those in need. Local charities work in conjunction with them to provide pillows and bedding. These, too, can be found online or call local churches to see if they can help. You don't have to be a member of the congregation.
