Ever heard of Walsenburg, Colorado? That's ok, neither has this computer's spell-check. But this little town halfway between Pueblo and Trinidad is light years ahead of Denver in making way for more ecologically minded building practices. They just legalized tiny homes! Google "Walsenburg Tiny Houses" to find out more.

But even though Denver is way behind of the times, DHOL's Tiny Home Working Group is continuing to design and build. We are very excited to now be working with Architecture for Humanity to design even better homes. We are still looking for more volunteers, materials and LAND, LAND, LAND. We are also looking for partners - land owners, neighbors and stakeholders that want to see tiny homes be built in Denver.

Do you care about housing homeless people? Do you think Tiny Homes are cute and adorable? Do you know that communities around the country are finding them to be a cheap and wonderful way to get people off the streets and into life-saving shelter?
Do you have extra building materials? Screws? Lumber? Doors? Windows? Beetle Kill Pine?
Are you interested in sustainable building? 
Do you own a hammer? A drill? A nail gun? A pocket knife? 
Do you know how to use them? Are you a licensed architect or roofer or construction foreman or forewoman? Can you pull nails out of recycled wood?
Have you never swung a hammer in your life but would like to paint and design stuff?
Can you rub linseed oil into a piece of wood?
Can you pick up stuff and organize it?
Do you have a backyard or driveway or parking space or any 10 x 20 foot space that you would like to see a cute environmentally friendly house be put on? 
Are you an artist?
If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, then we could use your help.

Call 732-778-8906 and ask for Marcus
