Do you believe that everyone deserves a home?
I do
My name is Kyron Gosse and I am the Freedom Investor. I believe that everyone has a superhero inside themselves and it is my mission to help people release that superhero and let it do awesomeness in the world. However most people get caught up in the daily grind that their superhero is never released. Even worse, people who face homelessness - be it living on the streets or their car, bouncing between family members or being put up in motels - are never even given a chance to step into their greatness.
It is time this stopped. Governments around the world are struggling
with the homeless epidemic. It is time we all pitched in to help.
The most effective model for tackling homelessness is the
Housing First model - just get people into houses and then sort out
any other issues (mental health, substance abuse etc). Yet with the
cost of housing rapidly increasing, this is not an easy task. Even
with large corporates donating tens of millions of dollars, the money
does not stretch very far and the impact is very small.
I have amassed a team of entrepreneurs dedicated to solving this
issue and we feel the time has come for something drastic, to fix the
homeless problem on a global scale, once and for all.
We have teamed up with Hero X to run an incentive competition to
create the technology that will allow us to build family sized houses
for less than $5000.
The technology from the winning team will
be open sourced meaning governments, corporations and organisations
around the world can utilise this technology, creating greater impacts
at a faster pace.
In order to run this incentive competition we need a prize
purse, hence this crowdfunding campaign. Contributions towards this
campaign will be pooled together along with contributions from our
corporate and government sponsors and awarded to the first team to
create the technology that will allow us to build family houses for
less than $5000 and adheres to the strict building code of the New
Zealand government.
