ShelterBox –
help for disaster victims worldwide
The ShelterBox Trust is a
registered UK charity that provides emergency aid for victims of
natural and other disasters anywhere in the world.
Since operations began in January 2001, we have
helped an estimated 500,000 people and worked in
more than 40 countries – responding to earthquakes, floods,
hurricanes, tsunamis, wars, volcanoes etc.
See where we've
worked.
ShelterBox was set up by the Rotary Club
of Helston-Lizard and all aid is distributed from our base
in Cornwall. The charity is supported by international affiliates
set up by Rotary clubs in various other countries, including
Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, New Zealand and the USA.
The charity's President is HRH The
Duchess of Cornwall. For details of recent deployments and

KidsOut June 12th
This is the largest single day out for disadvantaged
children and young people in the UK.
Over 28,000 children from all over the country take
part – thanks to over 750 Rotary Clubs throughout Great Britain and
Ireland who work with local schools and special groups to make this
happen!
The day, traditionally the middle Wednesday in June,
involves over 100 venues and more than 1,700 volunteers who ensure
the day is as special as it is memorable.
"Days out give our children the opportunity to
experience and discover. They talk about their special day for
months afterwards."
Special Needs Teacher
The first Rotary KidsOut National day out
was in 1991. Since then, more than 350,000 children have benefited
from a KidsOut fun day out!
