About Us
What we can do when disaster strikes

We provide emergency shelter and lifesaving supplies for families around the world who are affected by disasters, at the time when they need it the most.
We are now firmly established at the forefront of disaster relief and our work constantly earns the respect of outside agencies.
Below is a video marking the tenth anniversary of ShelterBox disaster relief.
Our goal is to help 50,000 families every year and with your help we will achieve this goal.
In the 11 years since ShelterBox was founded, we have responded to almost 200 natural or manmade disasters in over 75 different countries and provided lifesaving aid for well over one million people.
The ShelterBox solution in disaster response is as simple as it is effective.
We deliver 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, water storage and filtration equipment, cooking utensils, a stove, a basic tool kit, a children’s activity pack and other vital items.
