Dear Rotarians,

ShelterBox is responding in Gaza, providing emergency shelter and other essential items to people left with nowhere to live. As a humanitarian organization, ShelterBox must remain neutral and apolitical. We go wherever the humanitarian need of civilians is the highest, and right now that is in Gaza.

Currently, 1.4 million people are sheltering in collective centers and on the street, increasing their risk of disease, hunger and cold. We will be providing shelter, blankets, mattresses, kitchen sets, hygiene kits and more for people who have no belongings and are unable to return home, and those whose homes have been damaged. We need your support today to help provide shelter to those who have been affected by this conflict and other disasters around the world.

Responding in Gaza is very challenging, however ShelterBox has significant experience responding in complex crises and our aid is on route to the hardest hit areas now.

We are also liaising with Rotary leadership of District 2452 and Rotary connections in Egypt - many of whom have supported ShelterBox responses around the world in the past.

Your support makes a difference.

In addition to working to get vital aid into Gaza, we are also working in 11 other countries. Your club's donation ensures we can respond whenever disaster strikes.

As official Project Partners, Rotary and ShelterBox work together to ensure no family is left without shelter after disasters. Donating to ShelterBox allows Rotarians to take immediate action to help families affected by disasters around the world. 

Please, donate now.

Donations can be made online though the button below, by sending an e-transfer to support@shelterboxcanada.org or by mailing a cheque to ShelterBox Canada - 200 - 2010 Winston Park Drive, Oakville ON, L6H 5R7. If you are sending a cheque in the mail, we recommend notifying us at support@shelterboxcanada.org so we can ensure it is received.

APPLY NOW: A Vocational Training Team to Support Mothers and Babies Survive Educational Training inTanzania
September 2024

Rotary District 6400 is offering the exciting opportunity to join a Vocational Training Team to Rotary District 9211 (Tanzania) in September 2024. The VTT program, supported by the Rotary International Foundation, covers the cost of travel and room and board. Participants will have a life-changing experience, giving new perspectives on education, enhanced cross-cultural understanding, and personal growth.

The VTT will be led by Andrea Cassidy, a Rotarian with expertise in Maternal Newborn Health. The remaining three team members will be specialists in maternal newborn health and in teaching lifesaving skills. All must have a minimum of three years of work experience in maternal and newborn health.
 
The purpose of the VTT is to bring the Helping Mothers and Babies Survive Program (https://hmbs.org/) to Traditional Birth Attendants (TBA) and healthcare providers in Tanzania.

Prior to departure, the VTT will be required to participate in all orientation sessions, including a three-day training in Helping Mothers and Babies Survive, as well to complete necessary travel requirements. During the trip, team members must accept the decisions of the Rotarian Team Leader, travel with the team on the schedules established, maintain standards of behaviour that will reflect positively on Rotary, and share expertise and skills with host country participants. The team members will also be asked to aid in fundraising for needed equipment. After the trip, the VTT must prepare and submit final reports and speak about the experience to Rotary Clubs and other groups.
 
If you are interested in being part of this VTT please email your resume and a cover letter to Michelle White (notredame216michelle@gmail.com). In your cover letter, please explain why your training and experience would be an asset to the VTT.
 
Application Deadline February, 27, 2024.
Interviews for the Team Members: March 6, 2024.
