Hi Larry! 2,000 Cyclone Survivors Receive ShelterBox Aid in Bangladesh


ShelterBox has just distributed 200 boxes to survivors of Bangladesh's cyclone Aila, which struck the nation on May 25. “The recipients were so grateful. Whole villages had been destroyed and people were forced to live out in the open. The tents have given them the opportunity to start rebuilding their lives,” says ShelterBox Response Team leader Pat Prendergast. 25 of the boxes were sponsored by generous US donors--including Rotary clubs and other supporters from New Hampshire, Washington, Tennessee, Kansas, California, Massachusetts, and Wisconsin.

Larry, ShelterBox works around the clock to provide life-saving aid to disaster survivors. Won't you feature us on your show?
