The global support from the Rotary International network is the cornerstone upon which ShelterBox is built.
 
As the ShelterBox website writes:" Shelter is so much more than just a roof. It’s the foundation for life, families and communities. It is a place to feel safe after days or weeks of fear. It offers protection from harsh weather, privacy, and helps to preserve dignity. It’s a space to heal from trauma.... Shelter and other essential items help people protect themselves from diseases like coronavirus and malaria....Emergency shelter can also prevent communities from scattering. This means people stay connected and build resilience together... Recovery doesn’t happen overnight, but a dry and warm place to sleep, prepare meals and be with your family is the vital first step."
