ShelterBox provides emergency shelter and lifesaving supplies for families around the world who are affected by disasters, at the time when they need it the most.
ShelterBox helps those in need that have been affected by disasters at the time when they need it the most by sending in teams with supplies as soon as possible.
ShelterBox is firmly established at the forefront of disaster relief and their work constantly earns the respect of agencies from around the world.
Thousands of people have been helped by ShelterBox and Rotary.
In the 15 years since ShelterBox was founded, they have responded to over 255 natural disasters or humanitarian crises in almost 95 different countries and provided lifesaving aid for well over one million people.
ShelterBox delivers the essentials a family needs to survive in the immediate aftermath of a disaster.
Each large, green ShelterBox is tailored to a disaster but typically contains a disaster relief tent for an extended family, blankets, groundsheets, water storage and filtration equipment, cooking utensils, a basic tool kit, a children's activity pack and other vital items.
