Giving donation is not a problem but the problem is reaching the said aid to the needy. The people who give donation for “earthquake disaster” I saw these things selling in the market the people of quake disaster still need help. We are corrupt, dishonest almost. The Govt. is more exist the officials are busy in gathering money from each and every source. Now the aid comming from abroad each and every thing valuable will be held by the officials and 20-30% will reach upto flood victims. So terrible and shame. This foreign aid will be distributed among secretaries and minister even and low level. The things will be finished till going to victims. GOD help those peoples.Recommend

After the successful project of supporting the earthquake victims in 2008, they now intend to move on to a bigger and a much needed task – shelter building for flood affected families in Baluchistan and Sindh.In the present weather conditions, this is the need of the hour. The task requires substantial funds that can be collected if all of us join hands. I hope you all will come forward and contribute in whatever way possible for this noble cause.
