Join us in supporting Skoolie Foundation

 Our nonprofit program is dedicated to providing compassionate support to vulnerable members of our community, with a focus on individuals and families with children, veterans in need of shelter, domestic violence victims, and individuals facing emergency situations. We understand the importance of offering alternatives to traditional shelters and camp zones, and our innovative approach centers around nightly shelter services provided through our Skoolie Bus and Tiny Home Program. With a goal to grow, we are looking at a full rehabilitation effort for our community in this program. We will focus on growing our shelters in a community environment on land once we have secured the land. At that point the shelters on our property will allow staged growth. Earned extended stays. One primary Shelter will be given employment opportunity to help with monitoring on site. This gives incentives for our community to help grow towards permanent housing along with helping our community members regain hope and with personal self confidence.  

At Skoolie Safe Parking, our mission is to provide safe, secure, and dignified parking spaces for individuals experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity.

Through our commitment to comprehensive security measures, strict regulations, and additional supportive services, we strive to empower individuals to transition towards stability and self-sufficiency.

The Skoolie Cooling and Heating Station project repurposes gutted school buses to provide climate-controlled, off-grid shelters for individuals experiencing homelessness during extreme weather conditions. These mobile units are equipped with solar-powered air conditioning and heating systems, along with cots and security measures, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment. The project aims to offer immediate relief during heatwaves and freezing temperatures, enhancing the well-being of vulnerable populations in our community. 

 The Skoolie Shopping Cart Project aims to partner with local retail stores to retrieve, clean, and return shopping carts found in homeless camps and other areas. By pressure washing and sanitizing the carts before returning them, this project helps clean up the community while providing employment opportunities and fostering stronger neighborhood connections.

 At the Skoolie Veterans project, our mission is to honor the service and sacrifice of our nation's veterans by providing them with tailored residential housing solutions and fostering a supportive community environment where they can thrive with dignity and independence. Through personalized care plans, innovative housing initiatives, and collaborative community development efforts, we aim to empower veterans to lead fulfilling lives and create a lasting sense of pride and camaraderie among those who have served our country.
