So much is happening around the world right now. The news can feel overwhelming. But here at ShelterBox we have always been about helping those overlooked by others – and we cannot look away from the major crises happening around the world right now. Storms are causing havoc all over the world. Whether its Hurricane Eta in Central America, or Super Typhoon Goni in the Philippines, we are on high alert and we are responding wherever possible. We have reached close to 100,000 people across 11 countries and 15 disasters so far in 2020 while mitigating the health concerns due to COVID 19. We have adapted our distributions, added health and hygiene supplies, and have had medical experts and partners like Rotary alongside us to reach vulnerable families displaced by disaster or conflict.
This work would not be possible without your support. Together, we can help to save lives and provide homes and hope after disaster. Please share this event invitation within and beyond your Rotary network.
