Shelter Box humble beginnings commenced 25 years ago, having been developed by Mosgiel Rotary Club based in an idea from 5 Uk Cornish People. It that grown into an amazing organisation distributing shelter and basic equipment within a box, internationally, to people immediately post disaster.  Each shelter box is adapted and tailored to the disaster area, meeting cultural requirements where the disaster has occured. Since the development of shelter box three million people have been helped over the 25 years. 

Each box costs $1500. Our club continues to contribute 2 boxes per annum.
