“They are the best emergency
shelters out there. Period.”

As a first responder I have spent the last 13 years responding to every type of natural disaster. During (and certainly after) the initial search and rescue phase one of the first orders of business is to establish emergency shelters for IDP’s (internally displaced person). Because of this, I have personal hands-on experience with virtually every shelter on the market. It is my conclusion that the iDOME Shelter not only provides the optimum strength and sturdiness to withstand such chaotic environments, but also a much needed sanctuary for those who inhabit them (IDP’s and first responders, alike). They are the best emergency shelters out there. Period.

– Jon Rose, Founder for Waves 4 Water

“Global Empowerment Mission is
proud to partner with iDome.”

“Global Empowerment Mission is proud to partner with iDome. In the last few years, GEM has received donated iDomes that we distributed after various disasters across our globe. These aren’t just tents, these can serve as good temporary housing for many. The feedback we received from recipients are excellent.

The climate and man made refugee crisis is at an all time high and growing. According to the United Nations, 89.3 million people were displaced last year alone due to the result of persecution, conflict, violence, human rights violations or events seriously disturbing public order.

We encourage governments, foundations, NGO’s and the supporting public to help fund the manufacturing costs on these shelters so that they can be distributed to those in need on a large scale.”

-Michael Capponi, Founder GEM
