shelter

I'm extremely tight on fundz right now, I want to make myself a emergency diy shelter with corage, a tarp and with some trees. Where are some free places that might help assist with getting me these things?

Wondering if anyone could offer a touch of advice on my sleeping arrangements. I have a poly fill sleeping bag from Walmart, it's rated down to like 50 degrees fahrenheit. I also have a heavy duty tarp that I've been wrapping me and the sleeping bag up in the last few nights since it's been...

I have a ton of ideas all the time of how to get around gear problems I encounter, or to just generally improve my current system that I dont see anywhere else on the internet. I intend to write guides for all of these in the near future. Problem is, writing these big long posts obviously...

I have about $550 to spend, and I'd like to open a homeless shelter in Bellevue to house about 5-10 people. I think I may be able to keep it open for two months on this budget, but there could be donations to do so with popularity. I plan to obtain permission from a storage facility, then...

Hey yall! I've been spending my days researching about tents and bivys and now; to tarps. I would like to hear yalls favorite configurations for your DIY tarp tent. I've found this cool photo on rolling fox, and i'm honestly surprised at the many, many ways you can use it for any type of weather.

I mean, I think of the children, but what is up with big cities only having gay youth shelters? What about adults? What if there were LGBTQ camps, or something?

Looking to give away one or both of these tarps. I bought them back in 2016 and left them in a drawer and never used them. Only discovered that they're too big for what I need like 3 days ago. The colors were listed as brown and green, though the green is more of an aqua. Will bring to you if...

Not long ago, on Dec. 30th 2019 I decided to bail out of the current living conditions I was under in south central ohio with no plan whatsoever except the experience of the past encoded in my bones. With all my trash packed tight in one bag, I hitched a ride from the sticks to a Microtel...

I’ve heard a few stories over the years about people being given the ultimatum (by the cops) of go to a shelter or go to jail. The only time it happened to me was about 5 years ago in San Louis Obispo on Christmas Eve. We were sleeping under an awning of a closed construction outfit and were...

Hey, Pretty simply, I’m manning a local emergency warming station for those in need. Not all of us have the skills/experience/intellect/savy and need to reach out for help. It’s just something temp we got setup for the storm coming thru. Anyway, I want to play a good wake up song for them...

Hi! After a fender-bender, our car really shouldn't be out in a continuous downpour or thunderstorm until we can afford to replace makeshift body repairs w/the real thing. Any ideas on places to park (in parking garages or other shelter) in Orange County/SE LA County? Goal is to park for free or...

With winter hitting, I thought I'd throw out a tip for those that haven't thought of it or whatever. I didn't see this anywhere on the site and thought I'd share for anyone that had the need. I've done my fair share of winter camping in a tent in my younger years and in the past I've made what...
