ShelterBox
is an international disaster relief charity that delivers emergency
shelter, warmth and dignity to people affected by disaster worldwide.
They respond instantly to natural and manmade disasters by delivering
boxes of aid to those who are most in need. Each box supplies an extended
family of up to 10 people with a tent and essential equipment to use
while they are displaced or homeless.
The contents are tailored depending on the nature and location of the
disaster, with great care taken sourcing every item to ensure it is
robust enough to be of lasting value. The cost of a box is £490, including
delivery direct to those who need it. Each box bears its own unique
number so as a donor you can track your box all the way to its recipient
country via the website Highly trained ShelterBox
Response Teams distribute boxes on the ground, working closely with
local organisations, international aid agencies and Rotary clubs worldwide.
Since its inception in 2000, ShelterBox
has firmly established itself at the forefront of international disaster
relief, providing emergency shelter for the people who need it most
on every continent.
