On November 4 Shelterbox Canada held a fundraising dinner at the Hollyburn Country Club in West Vancouver.  During the dinner there was a celebration of Shelterbox Heroes.  A ShelterBox Canada Hero is a Rotary Club that has identified the continuing need to prepare for disasters and respond at a moment’s notice. Clubs are recognized based on their total annual giving throughout the year. There are three ShelterBox Hero levels: Bronze ($1,200+), Silver ($3,600) and Gold ($6,000).
 
Our members are very moved by hardships presented by various disasters throughout the world.  We wish to help where we can. The Rotary Club of Whistler is very proud to receive a Shelterbox Bronze Hero awards for both 2015-2016 and 2016-2017.
