Rotary International is the world's first service club organization, with more than 1.2 million members in 34,000 clubs worldwide. Rotary club members are volunteers who work locally, regionally, and internationally to combat hunger, improve health and sanitation, provide education and job training, promote peace, and eradicate polio under the motto Service Above Self.

As our thoughts go out to the Oklahoma communities impacted by tornadoes over the last couple of days, I wanted to keep you informed of ShelterBox’s response to helping families in the region.  We have sent a response team, which includes Rotarians from Districts 6040 and 6900, to identify unmet shelter and supply needs.  As a Rotary International Project Partner, we have reached out to the impacted districts in hopes of offering relief to those in their areas displaced by the voracious tornadoes.

 

*Phil and Will,* we know district 5770 and 5750 will take an active role in  the recovery and we are here to help you and your communities.

 

If any of you hear of unmet needs you’d like us to explore, or have questions about our other current deployments to Uganda and countries hosting Syrian refugees, please contact me directly.

We’ll continue to update our progress at www.shelterboxusa.org.

 

Shelter. Warmth. Dignity.

Regards,

Emily
