The situation in Pakistan is indeed urgent – and the attached flyer may be helpful to clubs. ShelterBox tents have been distributed in Rajanpur District and other districts are currently receiving more tents. Within days 1,000 ShelterBoxes and Response Teams were on the ground and 6,000 tents (the new Mark 10 design) have been directly dispatched from our manufacturer in China.
Please I remind clubs to advise if tax receipts for personal donations are required – please ask them to include the name and address with those particular donations.

"Courtenay Place Club is having a quiz night at the Cambridge on the 25 of this month to raise funds for shelter box. It is the normal Quiz night & very popular so it is a great opportunity to introduce Rotary & shelter box to a large no. of people. I have been invited there with demonstration box and will possibly speak as well. It is being preceded by a BBQ at just after 6.00pm."
