9. Why Do We Need A Shelter Kit?
When disaster strikes the first image is of people fleeing
their homes , clutching on to their loved ones, with
only the clothes that they have on their backs.
 Tarpaulins and mosquito nets provide shelter
 A kerosene stove and cooking and eating utensils help
prepare food
 Zeoline drops make drinking water safe
 Garments address the need for clean clothing
 Soap, toothpowder and detergent bars help maintain
hygiene and prevent illness.
