OUR VISION A world where no family is without shelter after a disaster.

OUR COMMITMENT

OUR MISSION To build awareness of global displacement and to facilitate providing families with life-saving shelter and essential tools and supplies that will enable them to rebuild their homes and transform their lives after a disaster.

crisis. In reflection on 2019, it is impossible for me not to share with you the story of Esther, a survivor of unthinkable tragedy, and a Nigerian refugee.

LETTER FR O M THE PR ESI D ENT With more than 88 million people displaced due to conflicts and violence, persecution, natural disasters or the consequences of climate change, there are more people displaced today than at any time in recorded history. As ShelterBox approaches its 20th anniversary of providing emergency shelter and lifesaving supplies to families who have lost everything in crisis, our work has never been more important than right now. And, as the world endures unprecedented challenges, it is clear how important home is to our health, safety and well-being. Through the last 19 years of emergency response, our humanitarian aid has reached the furthest parts of our world and has been a lifeline to enable the recovery of millions of people. We have learned a lot since we started out, but one thing is clear, that shelter is much more than simply a roof overhead; it is the foundation for life. In 2019, Cyclone Idai, one of the worst cyclones on record to affect Africa and the Southern Hemisphere, tore through the village of Mwalija, Malawi. It destroyed homes and livelihoods and separated families. Thousands were forced to take shelter in schools where families were segregated by gender and most lacked access to the shelter materials necessary to rebuild. Because of your support ShelterBox was able to respond to this emergency. We delivered shelter aid and supplies, provided training, and built capacity within the local community enabling 2,000 families to rebuild their homes, lives, and community more quickly. You made this possible.

In 2014, Esther and her family were violently attacked when Boko Haram fighters stormed their village in Nigeria. Esther fled to Cameroon and has been living at the Minawao Refugee Camp ever since. ShelterBox has been providing shelter aid to families at the camp, and today we are the only tent provider for arrivals at the camp. The shelter and support Esther has received enabled her to participate in a sewing class. Today, Esther is married, has two young children and is one of the most popular dressmakers in her camp. She can provide for and take care of her family, giving her hope for the future. Stories of self-recovery like Esther’s are the reason we exist. With your help in 2019, ShelterBox: • Provided shelter to 145,000 people in 11 countries. • Received Charity Navigator’s Four-Star rating and the GuideStar Platinum seal, demonstrating our commitment to effectiveness, efficiency, and transparency. • Renewed our partnership with Rotary International as their official project partner in disaster relief. • Received a nomination for the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize in recognition for our humanitarian efforts to support families fleeing the world’s most extreme conflict zones. These achievements and the stories of hope over the last year were all possible because of you. The work of ShelterBox is only possible because of your generosity, and we are incredibly grateful for your continuous support. We appreciate everything you do to help us reach families displaced by disaster and conflict. Kerri Murray President | ShelterBox USA

The ability to return to work, earn a living, and take back control of daily life is especially important to recovery after the displacement from a disaster or SHELTERBOX USA | ANNUAL RE P OR T 2 0 1 9

THE IMPORTANCE OF SHELTER OUR COMMITMENT

When you have a place to call home, hope follows. That’s why we exist.

We believe that shelter is a basic human right and that access to resilient shelter can cut through the chaos following disaster. Temporary shelter is a crucial step of recovery and reconstruction in the aftermath of disasters until permanent housing solutions are available. Shelter must satisfy multiple needs: protection from the elements, safety, comfort, emotional security, better health and hygiene, and even some semblance of home and community. Shelter helps keep communities and families together in times when they need each other the most. 4

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT WE PREPARE Natural disasters never take days off, and neither do we. We pre-position aid in locations around the globe so we can swiftly deliver the right aid when and where it's needed.

WE PUT FAMILIES FIRST We work tirelessly and with a flexible approach to provide the most vulnerable families, often women and children, with the emergency shelter and supplies needed to bring protection, warmth, and recovery after a disaster.

WE ARE FOCUSED We specialize in emergency shelter. We use our experience and expertise to focus on providing the essential tools needed to help rebuild homes after a disaster.

WE GO THE DISTANCE We have a robust global network of partners that enable us to achieve our mission. This network helps us go farther, enabling us to reach the most remote and often overlooked communities around the world that have been devastated by disaster to ensure that no one gets forgotten or left behind.

WE RETURN We don’t believe that one size fits all and our work isn’t done until we know that we’ve provided the right materials to help people transform their lives. We continue to evolve by returning and talking to, working alongside, and learning from the families who use it.

Every minute, 25 people are forcibly displaced by conflict and crisis situations.

W H Y S H E L TE R B O X IS N E E D E D With more than 88 million people displaced around the globe, there are more people displaced across our world than at any other time in recorded history. Many of them are struggling to meet their basic needs for food, water and shelter. As the scale and severity of disasters continue to grow, so does our desire to do more to reach these families made homeless by disaster and conflict situations.

ShelterBox is honored to have been nominated for the 2018 and 2019 Nobel Peace Prize for our work to keep families together during a time of unprecedented displacement (see p. 32).

ShelterBox responds quickly to assist in the immediate response and early recovery phase. Every day we are working to provide basic shelter and essential household supplies to families who have lost everything in an instant. While this work is complex and challenging and doesn’t often make the headlines, it is transformative to the families we serve. SHELTERBOX USA | ANNUAL RE P OR T 2 0 1 9

THE SHELTER KIT Our Shelter Kit is packed with vital hardware that can be used to rebuild or repair a shelter. Our Shelter Kits include various hand tools, ropes, fasteners and heavy-duty tarps that can be used to build a shelter, repair damaged buildings and begin to rebuild a home. Depending on the disaster and needs of the community, we customize the kits to include corrugated iron, tarpaulin and timber, or room

dividers and mattresses, whatever it takes to help people recover from a disaster. The versatile tools we provide help with everything from clearing rubble to building shelters and even tending crops. Our tools can also be used to build furniture, cut firewood and make repairs.

OUR 2019 GLOBAL RESPONSE

BEYOND SHELTER Shelter is more than just tents and tarps. It’s a process of recovery, a way of keeping communities and families together and allowing them the space to focus on the future. Through discussions with our beneficiaries, we’ve found that shelter helped to provide or enhance four pathways to recovery.

1. C REA T I N G A HO M E A home is more than a physical structure. It’s a place to spend time with family, to get a good night’s sleep, to play, to work, to feel safe and secure. It’s a place to find privacy and time to yourself. For the people we support, it’s a place with a future.

Nelie lived with her husband and nine children, in a house near the beach in the Philippines, before it was destroyed by Typhoon Tisoy. The family had moved into a school which was used as an evacuation center. Upon receiving a ShelterBox tarpaulin and other essential aid items, Nelie and her family built a home in a safer location. With the privacy and protection of their new home, they were able to relocate from the evacuation center and come together again as a family under one roof.

PARAGUAY 2.  BUILDI NG SK I L L S A ND KN O WL ED GE We are committed to lasting change, and that includes training people to build homes that last. A hammer does not build a home, but a hammer in the hands of someone with the knowledge, desire and motivation to build a home will. By working with communities to showcase both local techniques and construction methods we’ve tested around the world, we can help families to build and repair reliable, weatherproof homes. We also train people to pass that knowledge on, so families can continue to benefit for generations to come.

I paid close attention during training to ensure that I could make the appropriate repairs to my home, and so that it lasts longer and remains stronger the next time the floods come.”

FLOODING IN PARAGUAY In Paraguay, months of torrential rain caused severe flooding in Asunción, forcing entire communities to move to higher grounds to escape the floodwater.

CE CI L I O ’ S S TO R Y Cecilio had to abandon his home in search of higher ground when rising flood-waters damaged his home. He was one of the first to receive ShelterBox aid items and, along with some of his neighbors, he received training on how to repair his home. When it became safe to return, Cecilio used the hammer and nails to repair his old roof and build the frame for another section of his house.

3 .  HEL P I N G P EOP L E RETU R N T O WOR K Emergency shelter is deeply connected to livelihood. When you have a place to call home, you can shift your focus to earning a living. We often help people settle close to places where they can tend crops or keep livestock, and we provide the tools people need to work the fields or support trades. As communities rebuild and return to normality, we often find that homes double as shops or workshops. LAKE CHAD BASIN CRISIS Reaching across Nigeria, Cameroon, Niger and Chad, the Lake Chad Basin Crisis is a huge and complex humanitarian crisis with many causes. Extreme poverty, underdevelopment and climate change are just some of the factors at play, alongside growing insecurity caused by Boko Haram attacks.

BANGLADESH 4.  R EBU I L D I N G C OMMUN I T I ES A strong community is crucial to building resilience and lifting the spirit of the people living in it. Living with friends, family and neighbors around you provide the physical, material and emotional support needed to recover. We help keep communities together by carrying out training sessions with community members teaching them to use aid items like the tarpaulins and tool kits to build a shelter. Those community members then train the rest of the community, making sure that every family that receives aid is trained on how to fix their home using the tools provided.

Water levels rose to their highest in 100 years, leaving a large part of the country underwater and destroying over half a million homes.

OUR 2019 GLOBAL RESPONSE

CONFLICT IN SYRIA The Syrian crisis, described as the worst humanitarian disaster of our time, has caused untold suffering for millions of people. Syria has seen over five million people forced to leave the country, and more than six million internally displaced. Families have fled bombs and destruction, leaving behind their homes with nothing but the clothes on their backs. The extraordinary need for humanitarian aid has grown larger with each year the conflict persists. Extreme weather is an additional threat. The freezing temperatures of the Syrian winter further endanger families who have fled for their lives and are living in internal displacement camps across the country. The extraordinary need for humanitarian aid grows larger with each year the conflict persists.

ShelterBox has been continuously responding to the crisis since 2012. It is the longest response in our history. Working with our partners, Hand in Hand for Syria, ReliefAid and Bahar Organization, we have sheltered over 250,000 people affected by the conflict in Syria. Our customized kits include tents, tarpaulins, water carriers, solar lights, mattresses, children’s winter clothing, and other critical aid items. In November 2019, Latter-day Saint Charities generously supported ShelterBox’s winter distributions in Idlib, Syria to displaced families. This included thick mattresses, thermal blankets, solar lights, and shelter kits to ensure families were prepared for the cold weather.

H U M A N ITA R IA N P A R TN E R S Our in-country distribution partners help us provide aid in some of the most remote and dangerous conflict zones around the world. These networks, rooted in communities, help us go the last mile to deliver a range of emergency shelter to remote and vulnerable people. Syria, ongoing conflict, 2019

With support from the SL Gimbel Foundation and the Orange County Community Foundation, ShelterBox was able to support families like Stephano's.

When Cyclone Idai tore through southern Africa in March 2019, it separated parents and children, ripped up homes and destroyed livelihoods. In Malawi, the flooding left vast areas uninhabitable, homes were destroyed, and thousands of people were at risk of dangerous diseases like cholera and malaria.

With the Shelter Kit materials and tools Stephano received, he moved his family out of a collective center and into the new home he’d constructed.

EMPOWERING WOMEN AFTER DISASTER Women are disproportionately affected when disasters strike. ShelterBox provides women with tools to rebuild and recover. In 2019, ShelterBox launched the SHE Campaign to highlight the vulnerability as well as the resilience and strength of the women we serve. As women around the world flee violence and face disasters, they are often left homeless and vulnerable. Women experience higher death rates, increased genderbased violence, economic loss, and loss of education.

BU S HA A R O ’S S TO R Y

However, women are pivotal in the recovery process— they are often the first responders to a crisis and play a central role in the survival and resilience of families and communities. Last year we reached thousands of women, delivering emergency shelter and supporting them to rebuild their homes and their lives. Bushaaro is one of them.

Bushaaro, Ethiopia, drought, 2019

Bushaaro, a 16-year-old girl from Ethiopia, is the sole caregiver for her six younger siblings. Her mother passed away in 2015 and as the eldest girl, caring for her siblings became her responsibility. Prolonged drought in Ethiopia had severe effects on her family, killing all of their livestock, and with it their livelihood. Bushaaro fled with her siblings in search of both water and safety and now resides in a camp for internally displaced people. After arriving, she received a ShelterBox filled with emergency shelter and other items to provide for her siblings.

he most important thing I T got from the box was the solar light…living in a shelter with no light is like sleeping in your grave every night.ˮ

ROTARY PARTNERSHIP OUR SUPPORTERS

A cornerstone partnership, ShelterBox is Rotary International’s only project partner in disaster relief. We are proud to be project partners with Rotary International, a global community of 1.2 million people of action. By working together with Rotary, we collaborate and combine resources to ensure that we can support more communities in desperate need of shelter after disaster. Rotarians and Rotary groups around the world

support us in a variety of ways, from raising funds and awareness to providing support on the ground during our response to a disaster. Aided by the local knowledge and community connections Rotary provides, ShelterBox can move faster and more safely to identify the most vulnerable families.

G E T IN V O L V E D Each year, Rotary helps us to go further, support more people, and access areas that would otherwise be impossible to reach.

Connect with your community and families around the world INSPIRATION ShelterBox can help attract new members and inspire your community through raising awareness of the impact of our partnership around the world. Share stories of hope and resilience from the communities we reach together every year. PEOPLE OF ACTION There are so many ways Rotarians support families who have lost everything, from raising awareness and funds at home to providing a valuable point of contact for Response Teams through first-hand knowledge, introductions, logistical assistance, and vital links into communities.

ShelterBox Head of Operations Alf Evans with Immediate Past Rotary International President Barry Rassin.

D EPL O Y M E N T F O C U S Thousands of families in Paraguay’s capital city, Asunción, were driven from their homes after devastating flooding in 2019. Torrential rains had been battering the area since March, causing the overflow of the Paraguay River. The unusually heavy rain was linked to the climate pattern El Niño, and it displaced nearly 20,000 families in need of shelter and essential aid. The devastating effects of the disaster could be seen everywhere— from the roofs of mud-swamped homes where some families were camping to survive, to the makeshift shelters that were starting to crumble down after months of exposure to the elements. Working with the local Rotaract club, we provided 2,925 families that were affected the most with essential aid items like solar lights, mosquito nets, blankets and Shelter Kits. This work was supported by Latter-day Saint Charities.

SHELTERBOX RESPONSE TEAM ShelterBox delivers aid around the world with the help of an amazing group of dedicated and highly trained volunteers that make up the ShelterBox Response Team. ShelterBox recruits volunteers who can commit long-term, are available for a period of at least five years, and who deploy twice each year for up to three weeks at a time. The selection process is highly competitive and takes around a year to complete. The role is mentally and physically demanding.

IN THE SPOTLIGHT BUILD I N G P EA CE ShelterBox is honored to have been nominated for the 2018 and 2019 Nobel Peace Prize for our work to keep families together during a time of unprecedented displacement. The nominations were in recognition of our humanitarian efforts to help families caught in some of the world’s most extreme conflicts. This nomination would not have been possible without the dedication and generosity of our supporters, volunteers and partners at home and throughout the rest of the world. Thank you.

S H E L TE R B O X A T R O TA R Y U N D A Y On November 9, 2019, ShelterBox USA President, Kerri Murray, was a featured speaker at Rotary UN Day, addressing hundreds of attendees on the global refugee crisis and the critical ways that ShelterBox is working to help families displaced by conflict.
