Nanuet Rotary ShelterBox Camporee

Diane Serratore, Neighbor

The Rotary Club of Nanuet is holding this ShelterBox Camporee to raise awareness of and funds to support the club's ShelterBox efforts. Funds generated by this ShelterBox Camporee will go to purchase ShelterBoxes for use as temporary housing for Syrian refugees forced to flee from their homes in this war-torn region.

Each ShelterBox costs $1,000 and contains a disaster relief tent large enough for an extended family, blankets, water storage and purification equipment, cooking utensils, a stove, a basic tool kit, a children’s activity pack and other vital items.
