As a ShelterBox Canada Changemaker, you will help us raise funds to help us in our mission to see no family without shelter when disaster strikes. We are looking for people who will participate in our campaigns as well as host their own fundraising events such as participating in sponsored sports events, craft sales, hosting a ShelterBox themed party, and much more.
‘It’s an incredible feeling to be able reach out and help people on the other side of the world in what is quite possibly the worst moment of their lives. That’s why I support ShelterBox.’
Pam Furnish, ShelterBox volunteer

At least twice a year coordinate a ShelterBox fundraiser of your choosing:
- Donate a special occasion to ShelterBox (ex. birthday, Christmas, anniversary, etc.
- Host a Shine for ShelterBox event
- Go Off-the-Grid
- Host your own fundraising events
Activate in times of disaster – when major disasters strike, families need our help more than ever. During this time we need the support of our volunteers to share important updates about our current response. We need your support to share these urgent updates with your network and help us to raise funds and awareness while the disaster is in the media spotlight
