ShelterBox delivers the essentials families need to begin rebuilding their lives in the aftermath of a disaster. From ShelterBoxes to ShelterKits, we can send immediate emergency shelter and other lifesaving equipment anywhere in the world. We instantly respond to earthquake, volcano, flood, hurricane, cyclone, tsunami or conflict and have responded to 275 disasters in 95 countries. 

ShelterBoxes typically contain a disaster relief tent for a family, thermal blankets and groundsheets, water storage and purification equipment, solar lamps, cooking utensils, a basic tool kit, mosquito nets and a children’s activity pack. ShelterKits contain plastic sheeting, basic tools, rope and fixings that enable families to rapidly provide their own shelter or make repairs to their damaged houses in the aftermath of a disaster. The contents of our aid can be tailored depending on the nature and location of the disaster, with great care taken sourcing every item to ensure it is robust enough to be of lasting value. 

Highly trained ShelterBox Response Teams distribute aid on the ground, working closely with local leaders, organizations, international aid agencies and Rotary clubs worldwide. Since its inception in 2000, ShelterBox has firmly established itself at the forefront of international disaster relief, providing emergency shelter for the world's most vulnerable people.

The Ambassadors and Response Teams at ShelterBox USA play a crucial role in both outreach and active disaster response. Ambassadors are responsible for raising awareness and garnering support for ShelterBox's mission through educational programs, fundraising efforts, and community engagement. Meanwhile, the highly trained Response Teams are deployed to disaster-stricken areas to distribute emergency shelter and lifesaving equipment, working closely with local entities and international partners to ensure efficient and effective aid delivery. Together, these teams amplify ShelterBox’s impact, from mobilizing resources to hands-on disaster relief.
