We are Tiny House in My Backyard (THIMBY), an interdisciplinary team of UC Berkeley graduate and undergraduate students that have worked together to design and build an affordable, off-grid, 100% solar-powered "tiny" house. Now, we are on our next mission to build sustainable tiny homes for the homeless of the Greater Bay area.Together with organizations like Greater Richmond Interfaith Program (GRIP) and Tent Makers, we aim to launch a long-term and sustainable program to build beautiful, sustainable, and affordable tiny homes for homeless families, while also training people within the homeless community to build tiny houses themselves. Not only will this program provide an immediate housing solution for families that need help now, but it will also continue to positively impact the homeless community as we help train dozens of homeless people in tiny house building.For our Pilot Project, we are building a home for an inspiring mother named Constance, and her two children, Miracle and David, who are in desperate need of a home. Our goal is to raise enough money to buy quality materials for Constance's tiny house, as well as employ experienced professionals within the homeless community to build and train other homeless individuals in building skills.
