ShelterBox Founder Witnesses Work in Haiti

by admin | March 6th, 2010

ShelterBox Founder Tom Henderson has seen firsthand how ShelterBox tents are providing shelter to families who have lost everything in Haiti.

The charity’s CEO is in Port au Prince where 10,000 ShelterBox tents have been distributed to those left homeless in the tragedy, with thousands more tents on the way.

Tom has been undertaking a field assessment of ShelterBox’s operations in Haiti and meeting partner agencies who have provided support during one of the largest deployments in the charity’s history.  He is joined by ShelterBox’s International Training Academy Manager Ben Spurway (UK) and ShelterBox Response Team member David Eby (US), one of the first aid workers to arrive in Port au Prince following the earthquake on January 12.
