Essential tools, shelter and materials
A look at the ShelterBox aid and equipment delivered to vulnerable families following a disaster or conflict.
Everyone deserves a place to call home. Right now, more than 100 million people around the world have lost their homes to disaster and conflict. We are working to change this. By providing emergency shelter, tools, and household supplies to displaced families after disaster, we enable families to begin to rebuild and recover, transforming despair into hope.
ShelterBox exists to ensure no one is without shelter after disaster. We often work in places that others don’t, making sure that we reach families who need support to take the next step in resuming their livelihoods.
A look at the ShelterBox aid and equipment delivered to vulnerable families following a disaster or conflict.
ShelterBox goes to the ends of the earth to deliver aid to families in the most remote communities that have been devastated by disaster.
Shelter is more than just a roof – it’s a home. The impact of ShelterBox provides the foundation for life, for families, for communities.
ShelterBox is responding to the Ukraine crisis and has helped more than 70,000 people so far.
We continue to focus on delivering essential aid items to families displaced within Ukraine and refugees who have crossed the border to Moldova.
