ShelterBox

charity in the United Kingdom

ShelterBox is an international disaster relief charity that provides temporary shelter and life saving supplies to displaced families.[1] ShelterBox sends a package that typically contains a tent designed to withstand extreme weather conditions. It also has a water purification kit, blankets, tools, and other things needed to help a family survive after a disaster.[1] The contents of a ShelterBox are designed for the nature and location of the disaster.[2]

ShelterBoxes sent to Kenya after the drought and famine in May and June 2011
