We are partnering with Matt Risinger and The Build Show team to bring aid to the families impacted by the earthquakes in Turkey and Syria.
Every Shelter is partnering with Matt Risinger and The Build Show team to raise $50,000 to provide Emergency Floor to the families impacted by the recent earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. Our partners in Turkey will distribute them to families as part of their relief efforts there. Tents are in high supply, but means to keep families warm and clean are not. We know many of these millions of displaced people will be in tents for years to come.
Because of the proximity of our manufacturing (Kütahya, Turkiye) and discounts from our manufacturer, $150 will supply a floor for one family’s shelter or $11,250 covers a week’s manufacturing (75 shelters).
You can make a lasting impact – help us keep floor production going by donating today.
Made from a very durable insulating material primarily found in the automotive industry, Emergency Floor provides an R4 insulative value where you need it most. Our floors can pay for themselves in less than 2 years.
Initial research indicates that replacing dirt floors with Emergency Floor could improve cognitive development in children and reduce parasitic infections by 78%, instances of diarrhea by 49%, and anemia by 81%.
Comfortable and easily cleaned, Emergency Floor brings a much higher level of dignity to families than a standard dirt floor.
No other solution available offers the same value of our floors. It is the perfect solution for your next shelter improvement project.
Emergency Floor tiles may easily be cut with a utility knife to dodge any impediment and create a custom fit in any shelter on the market.
Many host countries insist that improvements made are non-permanent. Though Emergency Floor will last through years of abuse, it installs and uninstalls in minutes. It can be moved easily if a camp needs to relocate.
What’s the best way to keep a tent warm in the winter? Current methods primarily include issuing more blankets, insulating two or more walls, and providing a diesel stove. These definitely help but another critical element is still lacking: flooring.
Conflict in Syria, and the resultant mass exodus of its residents fleeing for safety, has greatly affected its neighbors, especially Lebanon. Of the 5.6 million people who have fled Syria since 2011, more than 1 million have settled in Lebanon. For a country with a total population of only 6 million residents, the strain of hosting a drastic influx of refugees has taken a toll on its infrastructure and resources.
