The Rotary Club if Allen has donated $1,000 to ShelterBox to fund the outfitting of one ShelterBox.  A ShlterBox is a complete emergency shelter with tools to help families and individuals in disaster areas.  Each box contains a family-sized tent that protects people from the elements and provides a safe space in which people can start to recover from physical and emotional trauma.  Other contents differ depending on the disaster and the climate, but items such as solar lights, water storage and purification equipment, thermal blankets and cooking utensils help start the process of creating a home. Bruce Heller, a member of the Allen Rotary Club-Sunrise and a national volunteer for ShelterBox accepted the donation.
