Shea – a musician, father and humanitarian - founded Comprehensive Disaster Response Services (CDRS) to help the affected people of the northern region in 2005. His services later on benefited flood victims and internally-displaced people.
Explaining his dedication towards serving the people of this foreign land, Shea said during his initial days in the country, he saw the side of Pakistan which was rarely presented to the rest of the world.
Emphasising that every effort counts, Shea said the population is growing day by day and the number of people he can help is just a drop in the ocean but he said: “we should not see our success against the backdrop of what is needed because then we will rip our hair out in frustration. We have to look at each individual we can help.”
