Recovery starts with shelter. Global Gifts help empower families to start the process of recovery after disaster. Defy gift-giving conventions today and help families recover for tomorrow.
ShelterBox Global Gifts are a great way to give alternative gifts to family, friends, colleagues, or someone special all while making a difference.
It’s easy to honour that special person in your life by choosing a gift that will provide life-saving shelter and aid to a family affected by disaster or conflict.
These items symbolize shelter aid that ShelterBox Canada provides and will help where the need is greatest.

A shelter kit for those who love DIY, a kitchen set for your favourite home cook – there are lots of options to choose from!
Step 2: Send your gift
Your gift comes with a fillable e-card describing their gift and all the great work it’s doing around the world.
You can enter a special message and then email or mail it to your special someone.
Step 3: Deliver hope
By purchasing a Global Gift, you’re not just giving shelter, you’re delivering hope.
Your gift will directly impact the lives of families who have lost their homes due to conflict and disaster.
Give the Gift of Water
You can Give the Gift of Water with a water purification kit and 2 collapsible water carriers.
When families lose their homes, they often have limited access to fresh water. The water carriers allow families to collect water to have close by, while the water filter provides families with the safety and security of knowing the water they are drinking is safe from bacteria and debris.
Give the gift of safety with a water kit.
Give the gift of light
Give the gift of light to families with solar-powered lights!
When disaster strike and power lines go down, light can provide a feeling of comfort and safety to families. ShelterBox solar powered lights can last over 16hours on a single charge! Families can use them inside their shelter or hang them along paths to help light the way home.
Provide comfort and safety today with the gift of light.
The aid items from ShelterBox gave me the motivation to return home and begin repairs on my property… I paid close attention during the training to ensure that I could make the appropriate repairs to my home, and so that it lasts longer and remains stronger the next time the floods come.
