Shelter Box - July 4th Update
As Shelter Box Canada's first year of operation under new leadership draws to a close, we are pleased to announce that the Canada Revenue Agency has approved ShelterBox Canada as a registered charity in Canada (#84628 3208 RR0001)
The past year was one of tremendous progress for ShelterBox Canada. We have been overwhelmed by the strong support we have received from donors and by the incredible commitment of our growing volunteer base. Our sincere thanks go out to all of our supporters that have made it possible for ShelterBox Canada to help families affected by disaster across the world this year.
We would like to notify you of an important change in our donation process:
- Future donations to ShelterBox Canada can be made:
By cheque payable to ShelterBox Canada, sent to:
ShelterBox Canada
159 Jane Street, Office 2
Toronto, Ontario
M6S 3Y8
Online at www.shelterboxcanada.org
- The interim donation arrangement that was in place while ShelterBox Canada was waiting for charitable registration status to be approved has been concluded. We would like to thank the Rotary District 5550 World Community Service Foundation (based in Melfort Saskatchewan) for welcoming ShelterBox as one of their projects over the past year and for accepting donations for ShelterBox during this phase. Donation cheques for ShelterBox Canada should no longer be forwarded to District 5550 World Community Service Foundation.
- Please direct donor inquiries to ShelterBox Canada at support@shelterboxcanada.org or by phone at 647-352-1930 or toll-free 1-855-875-4661.
Once again, we would like to thank our supporters for helping to provide shelter, warmth and dignity to families in their hour of greatest need.
Kind regards,
Ron Noseworthy Lisa Salapatek
