ShelterBox is an international disaster relief charity that delivers emergency shelter, warmth and dignity to people affected by disaster worldwide.

1500+ ShelterBoxes and a ShelterBox Response Team were immediately dispatched to Port au Prince, Haiti after the January 2010 earthquake. The team on the ground have described the situation in Port au Prince as desperate.

Each box supplies an extended family of up to 10 people with a tent and essential equipment to use while they are displaced or homeless.
