Our designated non-profit, ShelterBox USA, is dedicated to providing basic shelter to victims of disasters around the world. The organization is able to keep its overhead costs low through the efforts of volunteers who help pack and deploy the boxes.
Within twelve minutes of the earthquake in Haiti, ShelterBox began its relief effort. To view a short video from CNN about what ShelterBox is doing in Haiti, click here.
