UKRAINE CRISIS
ShelterBox Response
We are responding to the Ukraine crisis and sending a team to Eastern Europe to understand the type of emergency shelter people will need, if our aid will be suitable, and which locations we might be able to work in. We are coordinating with local authorities, our Rotary and Rotaract leaders and other aid organisations to make sure as many people as possible will receive the help they need.
ShelterBox has experience working in Ukraine, carrying out emergency responses to floods in 2003 and 2008, and assessments in 2014 following the outbreak of the ongoing conflict in the Donbas region.
How You Can Help
- Ask both your club and/or trust to make a donation.
- Direct your members to shelterbox.org.nz if they’d like to make a personal donation
- Ask your social media chair to follow our Facebook and Instagram feeds and share on your own club pages. Ask your members to do the same.
Kind regards,
