You are here: Emergency Disaster Relief - ShelterBox

Emergency disaster relief

Right now, around 85 million people around the world have been made homeless by natural disaster and conflict. We're working to change this.

By providing emergency shelter and tools for families robbed of their homes by disaster, we're transforming despair into hope.

We are impatient to see a world where no family is left without shelter. Are you?

WHO WE ARE

ShelterBox is made up of people who believe in shelter as a human right – that shelter from the chaos of disaster and conflict is vital. No ifs. No buts.

We provide the tools that enable people to rebuild homes and transform their lives. We put families first. We’re determined to see a world where no family goes without shelter when disaster strikes – it’s the sole reason we exist.
