ShelterBox Disaster Relief

 

Please join us as we welcome Bruce Heller, Local Business Leader and Board Member of ShelterBox USA.

ShelterBox is a charity well-known to many in Rotary. According to online resources, ShelterBox seeks to "deliver the essential aid people need to begin rebuilding their lives in the aftermath of a disaster." Because each disaster--and each community--is different, ShelterBox makes "considered assessments to provide the exact support that gives people the hope and the power to transform thwir own lives," including family-sized tents and necessary tools, delivered in sturdy green boxes. Since April 2000, ShelterBox and Rotary have had a unique partnership, "with global support from the Rotary International network serving as the cornerstone upon which ShelterBox is built." Today, ShelterBox is the largest Club project in the world!
