Shelterbox
Service above self: Rotary Club of Schererville raises funds for disaster survivors a world away
 
SCHERERVILLE, IN -- The Rotary Club of Schererville recently raised $1000 to benefit ShelterBox, a humanitarian relief charity that assists survivors of disaster and humanitarian crises around the globe.
 
ShelterBox provides humanitarian aid—emergency tented shelter and other supplies, such as stoves, blankets and water filtration systems, among other tools to help families rebuild their lives after losing their homes and possessions following a disaster such as earthquake, volcano, flood, hurricane, cyclone, tsunami or conflict.
 
The organization is currently responding to disasters in Cameroon, Chile, Democratic Republic of Korea, Iraq, Nepal, Niger, and Syria.
 
“You never know when the next disaster might strike,” said Alan Monroe, Interim Executive Director of ShelterBox USA. “With generous donations such as this one from the Rotary Club of Schererville, we can continue our mission of providing shelter, warmth and dignity to disaster survivors around the world including the most recent earthquake in Nepal.”
 
Those interested in supporting ShelterBox can make tax-deductible donations at www.shelterboxusa.org or by mailing a check to 8374 Market St. #203, Lakewood Ranch, FL 34202.  For information or to make a contribution by phone, please call 941-907-6036.
