Whether it’s an environmental disaster or a war-torn country in the midst of extreme conflict, people who have experienced an already traumatic situation have often lost their home or cant go back to it. A shelter charity ensures those who have been caught up in a crisis have the shelter they need along with other life-saving essentials. Below, find out how shelter charity donations can make such a huge difference when you donate to a shelter housing charity.
Save The Children has been championing the right of children for over 100 years. We believe every child has the right to survival, protection, development and participation. We provide emergency response in crises and programs that help to protect children and give them the best opportunity in life. Here is how we help those in need as a disaster shelter charity:
Our Work As A Disaster Shelter Charity
We have multiple teams on the ground in countries around the world, helping those affected by humanitarian crises through our shelter housing charity. We provide life-saving essentials such as food, clean water, healthcare and shelter for children & their families, along with services such as education & protection support for children.
Millions of people are seeking refuge in camps that are already overcrowded, in poor conditions where the spread of disease is a real threat. Shelter is crucial, especially where exposure to weather adds to already poor conditions. Our teams provide temporary shelter in the first critical phase of an emergency response. We then help families to rebuild safer and more durable long term shelters.

Below are just some of the crises our disaster shelter charity teams are currently working in, helping to provide millions of displaced people with shelter:
