  1. PAKISTAN IN NEED The colossal disaster is getting worse- PLEASE DONATE to Non-Governemental and non-extremist organisations

  2. Devastation in Pakistan. Population in Need The devastating floods that have rolled through Pakistan for over a month now have left a disaster of massive scale in their wake. For a time, an area the size of England was submerged - one fifth of all the land in Pakistan. Although immediate loss of life remains relatively low (near 2,000 according to reports), damages from loss exceed $43 billion, almost one quarter of Pakistan's GDP. As the waters recede Nearly 9 million acres (3.6 million hectares) of existing crops are gone, 1.2 million livestock and 6 million poultry killed, and a bit less than 20 million of Pakistan's people affected. Many desperate Pakistanis still wait for flood aid More than 3 million people have yet to receive desperately needed food aid, according to the U.N., and nearly 1 million people have received no help of any sort. Part of the problem is simply the scale of the crisis. The floods that began their slow wave of destruction across Pakistan at the end of July swamped as much as one-fifth of the country, leaving 8 million people dependent on aid, according to the U.N. And that number keeps growing as more areas are affected. Please donate now and help save the lives of children in Pakistan.
