- Abstract
My idea is to turn high-vis jackets into tents for refugee camps and disaster relief projects. While visiting Turkey last year, I was close to the enormous earthquake that devastated a large part of the country, and it became clear just how important and life-saving something as simple as a tent can be. I believe that the enormous amount of material that the organisation has spare could make a real difference in situations like this, as well as in places like Gaza and Syria.
