20 years on from the Indian Ocean Boxing Day Tsunami
Disasters can strike with no warning, even at Christmas.
Two decades on, the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami remains one of the deadliest sudden onset emergencies in modern history. The scale of the destruction and human toll was vast.
The disaster impacted 14 countries on Boxing Day 2004. Learn about its devastating impact from people who were there, and hear about the amazing difference you made to thousands of lives.
We have come a long way in the 20 years since the Boxing Day Tsunami.
We have supported 3 million people worldwide, operated in around 100 countries, and have moved away from our iconic green boxes. But our mission has always remained the same – to see no person without shelter after disaster.
Together we can make sure emergency shelter and other essential items are ready to go when people need it most.
