As we all know about the sort of collateral damage that has been done in Pakistan due to Pakistan's worst floods in 80 years, more then 2000 people have died, and an estimated 4.5 – 5.5 million people are affected. Currently, we cannot stop the flood to cause damage but we can strive for the babies, women, children, men, old people and prevent them from dying with hunger and diseases. For this we have decided to extend a helping hand for the effected people out there just like we did for earthquake's affected IDPs.
To have a view of the situation on ground, one of my friends has recently talked to a doctor who is coordinating the medical relief related activities for the Flood Victims. As per him the magnitude of Flood disaster is 15-20% more than the IDP s disaster as most of the persons who have survived are Bare handed and Bare footed with their worn clothes remained with them as their ONLY assets.
He has mentioned that there is an urgent need of the following stuff for the victims:
- Drinking Water (As ALL means of water storage are located on the Ground and they have been destroyed due to flood)
- Dry Food e.g. Biscuits (As mostly there are NO means left to cook the food)
- Milk for babies specifically
- Baby Nappies
- Food items (Rations supplies)
We would be on our way to reach these people by mid of next week -- God Willing and would be using the available network / local resources to access the effected areas to assess the immediate needs and disbursing out whatever we could for them. All of the purchasing of required stuff and disbursement would be done by ourselves personally.
Kindly do remember in prayers and if you want to deliver your contribution for them please do share latest by 10th of Aug so that we may plan accordingly. I humbly request you to donate as much as you see proper for the cause. Your generosity will help the needy.
If we want to do something for PAKISTAN, let's ACT NOW! and circulate the word in your circle as well to enhance your contribution
