PAKISTAN FLOODS OCTOBER UPDATE

Pakistan Floods 2022

This years’ floods have been the most devastating in recent history. Usually when natural disasters strike, they affect a certain area where rescue and relief efforts are concentrated, but this year, over 30 million people have been affected by the floods all over Pakistan.

Praise be to the Almighty, Team KORT were among the first charity to be present on the ground delivering aid in various locations at the same time to support the suffering humanity.

Many areas have seen total devastation with hospitals, health centres, schools, businesses, homes, and crops destroyed. For the survivors, there will now be a long process to rebuild their lives.

Over the past two and a half months, KORT have provided food packs, blankets, cooked food, water bottles, tents, mosquito nets, medicine, medical assistance in Gilgit-Baltistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, Sindh, Punjab, and southern Pakistan with the support of the Pakistan Army.

This was truly one of our longest, tiring and most enduring relief project we have ever faced and now, two and a half months later, we are able to stop our relief work and think about rehabilitation for some of the worst affected areas.

Thank you to all our donors who have donated generously towards our appeal, and a special thank you to the Government of Azad Kashmir for entrusting KORT with 100 million rupees of government funding to support the flood affected people of Pakistan.

Thank you also to all our amazing staff and Muskorteers (volunteers) who planned and arranged all the logistics to procure, deliver, and personally distribute the aid.

May the Almighty accept everyone’s donations and efforts in bringing relief to the people in need and use this as a means to forgive our sins and bring blessings into our lives. Ameen.
