ShelterBox to Haiti but this donation from the Peel Charity Shop will mean many
more families have the hope of survival.

Appeal last year and are always pleased to be able to help these poor people
affected by such horrific disaster”.

said in response “thank you to Peel
Charity Shop for the donation, it means that the Rotary Club can again support
the ShelterBox Charity and the people of Haiti when they need it most”.
