Correct!

The top three most important things which aid survival in an emergency are shelter, water and food. Depending on the weather conditions, you can sometimes only survive 3 hours without shelter, 3 days without water and 3 weeks without food.

Regular donations help to provide life-saving support when disaster strikes. This means that together, we can respond quickly when an emergency strikes, listening to local women to find out what’s needed, and working with them to deliver it.
