Appeal to Help Flood Victims in Pakistan

Just as villages througout the province of Sindh were beginning to recover from the disasterous floods of 2010, devastation hits them once again, wiping out all attempts of reconstruction. Crops are washed away, livestock float dead in the water, homes are destroyed. The sight of families stranded on mud banks exposed to elements greet us once again and people are in need of relief in the form of food, mosquito nets, shelter...

Our Rapid Response Teams are ready to go, flood affected areas are just three hours away from our YWAM Karachi Centre so we are well positioned to help the villages and communities we have already been supporting since 2010.

Relatives of the YWAM Karachi staff have been badly affected, flood waters have penetrated several areas of the city of Karachi, inundating slums and poorly constructed areas. The marshy puddles which will be left behind by receeding waters will prove to be deadly breeding ground for mosquitos. People become at risk of dengue fever by day and malaria by night. There is no escape from disease without insecticides and mosquito nets. Dengue fever, a newcomer in Pakistan, has no cure, it is a virus carried by mosqitoes that began to multiply in the country after to 2010 floods.

We want to buy food supplies, mosquito nets, insecticide,clothes, tarpaulins for flood victims, please help us! Click here to Donate Now!
