This project began in the Fall of 2025 as a quest to develop emergency heating solutions for unhoused people in Bloomington, IN. It soon evolved into a life-changing lesson on the fundamental value of human connection. From the beginning, it prioritized not only direct communication with unsheltered people, but also close collaboration in the creation of solutions. We are now not only colleagues, but close friends. The people I met through this project are some of the most selfless and courageous individuals I have ever encountered, and I hope this work can be a testament to their ingenuity.
