Pakistan Flood Appeal - If you can help, please make a donation

World Hope Network is appealing for urgent funds as the deadly floods in Pakistan are now impacting around 20 million people, including more than six million children. The destruction from the August Floods has now become the worst humanitarian crisis in Pakistan's history. We have a team on the ground in Pakistan now, and are able to get emergency aid where it is most needed, straight away! more

pakistan_flood2updated August 15, 2010

The scale of the catastrophe is overwhelming. More than 250,000 homes are thought to have been damaged or destroyed across Pakistan, with only a fraction of the displaced having been issued tents. Many are living in muddy camps or overcrowded government buildings, while thousands more are sleeping in the open next to their cows, goats and whatever possessions they managed to drag with them. All aid agencies have described the situation as being far worse than first thought, and with monsoonal rains are expected to continue for another month – more funds are urgently needed.

The situation here has become desperate. People are starving and more floods are coming. Unfortunately, due to the desperation, aid workers are being mobbed, robbed and severely injured, causing the government to restrict the access of most aid workers into the affected areas. Having said that, (due to a growing, co-operative relationship with the government) it has been arranged for World Hope Network to go in to the affected areas (in the North) with the army to assist with emergency aid and distribution. more

"I would ask the international community to support and help Pakistan alleviate the sufferings of its flood affected people"
Prime Minister Gilani - August 2010

The worst floods in the region for 80 years have killed at least 1,600 people and affected about 14 million, with fears that diarrhoea and cholera will spread among the homeless.
Authorities are expecting the death toll to rise, as more of the heavy monsoon rains that have lashed the area for the past week have been forecast.
Prime Minister Gilani has appealed for international help. Many aid agencies have launched appeals after thousands of people are left stranded in Pakistan by the worst floods there in 80 years...., World Hope Network are doing the same.

Just over a month later on 2nd November, Vietnam suffered a second devastation from Typhoon Mirinae.
Together, there were more than 200 deaths, thousands of collapsed houses and many thousands of hectares of heavily damaged horticultural and rice fields. Wasting no time, World Hope made a visit to the affected areas and in the midst of all the suffering; a decision was made on the spot that we must do something to help these people. More...

Swat_Valley_relief
Many are still suffering from the Taliban insurgency where education has been banned for girls and more than 170 schools have been bombed or torched along with other government-owned buildings. Volunteers of the World Hope team left for the very troubled and dangerous Swat Valley area (North West Frontier Province of Pakistan), where the Pakistani government began a military offensive to regain control of this region from the Taliban. The team visited different camps in the town of Murdan where they distributed aid relief to the community.
