SHELTER BOXES TO HAITI

Mon, Jan 18, 2010

BLOG, CURRENT AFFAIRS

Below is the information I wanted to find and I now have a link on the right side of the blog too or click on the link below:-

Time is of the essence.

Shelterboxes to Haiti. Each box costs £490 and Haiti needs as many as we can send. This is real practical help.

Each box includes:
* A ten-person tent.
* Thermal blankets and insulated ground sheets.
* A life-saving means of water purification.
* A basic tool kit containing a hammer, axe, saw, trenching shovel, hoe head, pliers and wire cutters.
* A wood burning or multi-fuel stove – that can burn anything from diesel to old paint.
* Pans, utensils, bowls, mugs and water storage containers.

Every item is durable, practical and new, including the box itself, which can be used for anything from water and food storage containers to a cot for a newborn baby.

How to donate

It couldn’t be simpler. Just click on

Give whatever you can. It doesn’t have to be a fortune – every little bit helps. But please do it. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking, ‘oh, everyone else will’ and don’t get cynical, thinking your help will be siphoned off elsewhere. This is not a scam – it WILL help.

ALSO – maybe you could do what my friend’s daughter (aged 10) has just done and encourage their school to organise a mufti day or a cake sale or something of that nature to raise some more funds.

    Excellent initiave. I hope this natural disaster draws attention to the longer term issues. Haiti is one of the poorest places on earth that is plagued by corruption and crime. It never ceases to amaze me how many similarly sorry places are right on America’s doorstep. Haiti needs humanitarian help now, but thereafter, an honest regime that rules for all.
