Gregory Kloehn is one amazing person! He is an artist from Oakland who is using his creative talents to build mini shelters for the homeless people in California from TRASH!

Gregory digs through illegally dumped trash and goes dumpster diving.
Lke a compact room for a needy person
He uses what he collects to build small, one room shelters for the homeless.
 
The homeless are just loving Gregory with his initiative
Not only from the media, but from the people he helps as well.
These cute homes might be small
But if you sleep on the street, it could mean the world to you
But, something that small can mean the world to someone living on the streets.

The roofs are sloping so no water collects on them

Each of the homes are built with a pitched roof, so rain will run right off of them.

They have wheels, so a change of scenery is an option

They also have wheels, so their owners will be able to wheel them around if they need to.

These homes could change someone’s life
Someone could use it and it would change their life.

He can’t build a shelter for everyoneHe can't build houses for all of Oakland's homeless.
But he is not giving up soon
However, he doesn't intend to stop building any time soon.
He would love to teach others to build these shelters, it would help towards solving the problems of the homeless
 
 

He’s thought about starting classes, teaching others how to make them. "A lot of people who hear about what I'm doing want to get involved," he said. "Maybe we meet someplace and put a couple homes together."

Here is a man making a difference with his amazing creative abilities by using garbage and turning it into homes! Many people have donated money  on his Facebook page to help.
