Simple idea, real impact.
With every book we read, we do a good deed.
ShelterBox is an international disaster relief charity that I volunteer for. ShelterBox provides emergency shelter and essential household items to those who have lost their homes due to natural or man-made conflict.
During Covid-19, we began an online book club to help connect our members across Australia and, through books, connect them to cultures, people and places they may not otherwise encounter.
I run the national online ShelterBox Australia Book Club where our members’ monthly donations change the lives of families affected by natural disaster and conflict.
As Head Book Worm, I interview a number of the authors at our six-weekly zoom meeting. See some of our authors below.
