Feb 17 2016 Shelter Box Program
Jesse is Chairman of the Club's Shelter Box Committee .What is Shelter Box? An organization that provides emergency shelter and vital supplies to support communities around the world overwhelmed by disaster and humanitarian crisis. ShelterBox aid is tailored to a disaster but typically includes a disaster relief tent for a family, thermal blankets and groundsheets, water storage and purification equipment, solar lamps, cooking utensils, a basic tool kit, mosquito nets and children’s activity pack.
This club has been participating for ten years and has purchased/sponsored 12 boxes. In addition to the club sponsoring boxes, throughout the year the committee collects donations in the way of loose change from club members to sponsor additional boxes. Currently we have $250 toward another box....save that loose change!!!!
