FLOOD relief

Asma Jan Muhammad | January 11, 2022
Pakistan was in a state of national emergency after the devastating floods in June-Aug 2022 claimed thousands of lives – including children – and affected 33 million+ individuals across the country. People were displaced from their homes, left without shelter and have had their livelihoods destroyed.

Pakistan Association Dubai initiated an emergency appeal for donations to support the flood victims and delivered 15 containers worth of aid across the affected districts in Pakistan.

SUPPORT THE REHABILITATION OF PAKISTAN'S FLOOD VICTIMS

After providing the flood victims with immediate humanitarian relief, we have now moved on to the second phase of our campaign – rehabilitation. After hitting most parts of Balochistan province, the floods have inflicted huge losses to lives, property, businesses, agricultural fields, orchards and infrastructure. Even worse is the deteriorating health and environmental conditions in the province.
Drinking water sources have been contaminated with flood waters and use of such contaminated water results in waterborne and vector borne diseases; malaria and typhoid are becoming rampant doubled with skin related infections and diseases. The most vulnerable communities of the province are currently facing a major crisis.

BUILDING A MODEL VILLAGE IN BALOCHISTAN

Help us rebuild lives with the construction of a Model Village for the flood-affected families in Balochistan’s Lasbela District. Pakistan Association Dubai, in collaboration with Al Khidmat Foundation Balochistan, aims to build a model village which will have 64 new homes, a mosque, a school, a playground and park area, and water sanitation project and solar power system
