Help people affected by the Balochistan floods through these 7 relief organisations

Help people affected by the Balochistan floods through these 7 relief organisations

The province is one of the most impacted regions in the country with villages inundated and many people displaced.
23 Aug, 2022

This year’s monsoon spell has wreaked havoc across Pakistan but some areas have been impacted more than others. Balochistan has suffered a lot due to heavy rain and floods that have inundated several villages and claimed approximately 225 lives and damaged over 26,000 homes, according to PDMA Balochistan. The full extent of the devastation is still unknown.

There are several ways to help and we’ve compiled a list of seven organisations you can reach out to in order to contribute to the flood relief efforts in the province.

Edhi Foundation’s Flood Relief Campaign

Edhi Foundation Pakistan flood relief teams are on ground in all flood affected areas across Pakistan and have been rescuing people, providing relief including cooked food, dry ration packs, tarpaulin sheets, medical aid and other non-food essential items.

Countless families, women and children are left with nothing but hope, and are in desperate need of cooked food, dry ration packs, tents and medical aid.

You can donate here.

Balochistan Youth Action Committee

The organisation is committed to help a “vulnerable” Balochistan in these challenging times. Here is how you can help. A list of urgent supplies has been included for donations.

Government of Balochistan’s Flood Relief and Rehabilitation Fund

According to the instructions of Balochistan Chief Minister Abdul Quddus Bizenjo, a fund has been created for those affected by the flood. Donations can be made to any branch or office of the State Bank of Pakistan and the National Bank of Pakistan.

Weird, you guys never mentioned JDC which has the highest number of volunteers on ground for Sindh and south Balochistan. Please do your homework before publishing and advertising.

A very dire calamity situation is Balochistan. The looters and corrupts in Pakistan are loaded with money, why are they not helping the poor or they are only interested in getting votes?

Can anybody attest to the integrity of these organisations? I know plenty of people who are ready and willing to donate but unsure of whom to trust. If these charities are transparent in their funding I'll be happy to spread awareness of them.

@HashBrown® Just because we have corruption and accountability issues in Pakistan , that doesn't gives us and excuse to deny help to the people affected by the natural disasters, if every single person offers just 100 Pkr Rs that will bring in help equal or greater than 250 million X100...... imagine if only overseas Pakistanis small step, the nation wont have to beg from foreign countries.......... self help.. dont rely on anyone
