A Kind Artist Builds Shelters for Homeless. |
When it comes to having a good heart, look no further than Gregory Kloehn, a crafty artist from Oakland, California, who had the brilliant idea of creating small mobile mobile shelters for homeless people out of recycled an reclaimed resources found on the street. |
His first step in the process isn't a
glorifying one - he goes dumpster diving in an industrial area which
has high amounts of illegal waste dumping. This is where Kloehn finds
the materials for his architectural creations, which he makes out of
anything he finds - a door might be a refrigerator door, a foundation
might be a cargo pallet, or a window can be the old door of a laundry
machine.
|
No one home is like the other, but
they all provide a much needed roof above a homeless person's head, a
warmer place to sleep in, and wheels so they can take them from place to
place. Many have joined Kloehn and volunteered their time to help with
this great project. God bless.
