TENT 2 RENT

Homeless

By Tshura YPublished 4 years ago 3 min read

It all started the day I decided to take accountability, I got tired of being sick of tired and decided

To no longer stay a victim of my circumstances EVERYTHING I went through in my 42 years of Life prepared me for my “Entrepreneur Endeavors” let me introduce you all : TENT 2 RENT is an empowerment journey, lifestyle, entrepreneurship, advocacy, radical start up for anybody to succeed and see results if they are truly committed.

Literally starting from scratch by utilizing raw resources, technology, agencies, local community events, networking, nonprofits, and etc. The goal is to provide information, education, testimonials and mentorship for homeless individuals with limited to no income by allowing the person to sustain self employment and eventually make enough money to be able to afford RENT.

Many people are Homeless for various of reasons and circumstances, it's impossible to rule out a single definite reason why; The goal is to not focus on the “HOMELESS’ aspect of the individual but confronting the why and particularly with CHRONIC HOMELESSNESS

I believe by investing time, support, outreach, community engagement, public relations, and etc to the HOMELESS individuals willing to participate in moving beyond the TENT will succeed. In order for this unorthodox method to work the individual have to MENTALLY be prepared to move beyond their circumstances at all costs regardless of the situation, When the person is ready TENT 2 RENT wants to be a solution, provider, alternative and source of CHANGE

We all have a set of skills that we don’t tap into or have forgotten to sharpen on a daily basis, it’s still inside of us. Contrary to popular belief many homeless people have numerous skills, educated, creative, and exemplify entrepreneurship. The everyday pressures of living life.

Maintains a solid foundation can take a toll and change on one's life in the blink of an eye. Nothing is for sure, especially in the workforce industry. The ultimate American dream is to work for yourself and establish your own source of finances, ANYONE can achieve this at any point in their lives. Sounds crazy right ? That is why TENT 2 RENT was developed, to move forward and CHANGE against all odds.

Money, Education, Status, and Experiences, to name a few is not an option or factor for TENT 2 RENT to work, In fact the more barriers one has the better, Motivation is one of many reason to why this idea or ideology will work, it's about utilizing whatever skills or resources to establish finances.

Homeless people living on the streets or in tents, resort to panhandling, soliciting, sales, craftsmanship, and other creative outlets. Once again proving that we as individuals have skills we use on a daily basis now its about gaining and sustaining revenue due to those skillsets.

My vision and reason for marketing the TENT 2 RENT approach is to see this “concept” grow, thrive and flourish in different locations without limits. Homelessness is right up there in subject matter as Addictions, Mental Illness, Poverty, Legal Matters, and so many more. TENT 2 RENT will provide a judgement free safety space to welcome anyone. A priority will go to Homeless people in tents, shelters, cars, sidewalks, bandos, couch surfing, motel living, shacking, and anyone escaping toxicity. Once again emphasis MUST be placed on accountability from the willing participant. In order for TENT 2 RENT become a life changing transformation. WE all have it inside us to change our situation for the better and create our own wealth. TENT 2 RENT

In order for this idea, concept, solution, and etc. to work, The Homeless Individual have to be mentally prepared to accept the challenges ahead and have the work ethics to see results. Example: If the Homeless person have Proficient computer skills and a background in graphic designs the options for various projects and creating for other companies or local businesses as a freelance artist is limitless. It's about instilling confidence, results and educating the individual to maintain a solid foundation while creating a source of income for themselves.
