Strong recovery from disaster, war and poverty begins with a safe and secure place to rebuild a life for a family. By supplying places for recovery, the Safe Shelter Initiative with Barebones Living helps local and global communities rebuild from disasters. Tifie sends shelters around the world that are used as semi-permanent homes, schools, and clinics and youth centers.

Barebones Shelters

Barebones shelters were designed to provide a safe and dignified shelter, whether that is for families in desperate situations fleeing war or patients needing medical treatment after disaster. The material is crafted from premium, antimicrobial fabric, and the shelter can withstand 90-MPH winds and 1,000 lbs of snow. These shelters provide safe and reliable dwellings to those in recovery in all types of environments. They are currently being used in the Caribbean, Nepal, Middle East, South and Central America, and Africa. Designed with sustainability in mind, the frame can be insulated and with local materials, built into a semi-permanent structure that can last indefinitely.
