The Crew

The Crew of the Rotary E-Club of Global Diversity and Environment of Southern Connecticut chose ShelterBox as one of our Master Causes ongoing when we Chartered the Club in June 2021.

Why ShelterBox?

• Because it is Rotary International’s trusted and official project partner in disaster relief.
• Because it speaks to rapid response in disasters such as right now in Haiti and increasing tragedies caused by climate disruptions throughout the World.

We know that the monies raised will go to exactly what we want it to – and the services to humanity are precise, life-saving, and offering dignity in the most tragic circumstance.  Thank you in advance for being part of our partnership.

 

ABOUT SHELTERBOX

ShelterBox provides emergency shelter and other essential items to families who have lost their homes to disasters or conflict.

In April 2021, ShelterBox surpassed providing support to two million people since 2000, responding to more than 300 disasters in nearly 100 countries.

ShelterBox responds urgently to earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, hurricanes, cyclones, tsunamis, or conflict by delivering boxes of essential shelter, aid, and other life-saving supplies.

Each iconic green ShelterBox contains a disaster relief tent for an extended family, blankets, a water filtration system, emergency lighting, and other tools for survival.
