Welcome Meghan Reed of Emmaus Rotary. Meghan will be serving as Co-Ambassador effective January 1. Both of us are available to speak to your clubs and share the story of ShelterBox. We have two presentations available. ShelterBox 101 is an introduction to the organization and best for clubs with newer members who may not be familiar with ShelterBox. Four Families focuses on four families in different regions and shows the impact ShelterBox has had on them, putting a human face to the work we support. ShelterBox has now aided over 2,500,000 people since it was founded in 2000.
D7430 shone in the first quarter of the Rotary year, standing second in the number of Hero Clubs ($1,000 minimum donation) in the US. Congratulations to the Bethlehem Morning Star, Blue Bell, Hatboro, Horsham, Kutztown, and Newtown Clubs for showing the way. More recently, Willow Grove Rotary made a donation of over $6,300, making then a true leader. Support from Rotary clubs and other donors allows supplies to be pre-positioned for a more rapid response.
For more information or to schedule a presentation, contact either Bill Tuszynski (bill.tuszynski@gmail.com) or Meghan Reed (meghanreed517@gmail.com). Current ShelterBox deployments are shown on the map below.
