Shelterbox

Imagine this, you're at work, your phone rings, you were half expecting it to. It's a call from Shelterbox HQ. The next day you're in Malawi sitting in a UN shelter cluster meeting next to a village chief, facilitating the complex relocation of hundreds of displaced families. Being a response team member on Shelterbox's disaster relief deployment roster was been an eye opening experience. I have found myself meeting some of the world's most resilient people who demonstrated remarkable strength in the face of loosing everything. Displaced people have sad stories to tell, but their spirit and positivity is inspirational. If you haven't heard of the work that Shelterbox and their volunteer response teams undertake, please vist shelterbox.org to find out more.
