Organization:Sheltersuit Foundation
From HandWiki
Sheltersuit is a water- and windproof jacket which can be transformed into a body suit by zipping it on the sleeping bag. It is an outdoor product made with durable and insulating materials that assures all users warmth and rain protection.[1] After use, the sleeping bag can be stored in the duffle bag. Bas Timmer created the Sheltersuit concept with the intention to help homeless people survive temperatures below zero degrees.[2] Production costs are €150 (US$164). In order to offer them for free, Bas Timmer and Alexander de Groot established the Sheltersuit Foundation.[3]
