Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page and agreeing to donate to our favourite charity, ShelterBox.

We like to support this charity which was started in Cornwall and provides immediate shelter for those who have lost their homes due to natural disasters, such as earthquakes and floods. 

Each box costs £490 and provides  shelter in the form of a 10 person tent plus blankets, a cooking stove and utensils, water carrier and purification tablets,tools and a pack of crayons and colouring books for children plus other things deemed necessary to help with the situation. 

In 2010 so far 27,000 boxes have been sent to Haiti and up to 61,000 people in Pakistan have been helped after the floods by providing shelter, warmth and dignity.

It is simple, fast and totally secure to donate. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - We raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
