There’s plenty of good news to share from ShelterBox. Here’s a round-up of hopeful stories, updates on our responses, and the impact of shelter in action around the world.
Listening to women’s voices
By providing safe, dedicated spaces for women-only discussion groups, we’re gaining deeper insight to understand women’s needs – and shape more inclusive, effective responses.

Working in Gaza
Despite immense challenges, ShelterBox has supported the construction of 10 shelters for highly vulnerable families ahead of Eid – the first time in a year we’ve been able to build inside Gaza. Working with our partner PARC, this pilot is helping shape support for more families to follow.

Positive feedback from communities in Cameroon
We’re halfway through our latest project in Cameroom and we’ve received great feedback from the community. Improved shelter designs and specialist support are delivering high-quality builds, and community committees are helping ensure people’s voices shape the response.

Hope in Tigray
Through our project in Ethiopia, we supported 1,800 families with emergency shelter, repair kits, household items, dignity kits and cash assistance. Together, these resources are helping families begin rebuilding their homes and lives in Tigray.

Working alongside our incredible local partners
ShelterBox’s global partnerships are vital to this work. Last month, partners from Ethiopia, Somalia and Yemen came together in Nairobi to share ideas on shelter, inclusion and climate adaptation – strengthening how we respond, together.
