LDRF Update: Volunteers Needed - North of Pakistan
The following is an urgent call for volunteers from an LDRG aid worker - Tree Elf:
The LUMS Disaster Relief Fund (LDRF) does not have volunteers who can go up north. We need you to volunteer yourself; your time, your energy. Contact Dr. Sohaib Khan ( sohaib[at]lums[dot]edu[dot]pk ) and Yasir Hashmi for volunteering. We need people to go up there, help organize stuff, coordinate, distribute. Help out in general. Do This! Give Some Of Your Time!Additionally an important note for all donors from the LDRF team:
Don't send heavy trucks up north: there are massive traffic jams on the way. Also, don't send goods individually: we are not working alone. Contact Edhi, Red Crescent, Islamic Relief, SUNGI, Omar Asghar Khan Foundation, NRSP or the armed forces. There is an urgent need for large waterproof tents, blankets and bedding. These should be sent only up to Islamabad, where the armed forces are in charge of redistribution.
I will raise this to charities to support affected people. Charities are always great to support affected people during the time of floods or any other natural disaster situations. I found Muslim Charity as the best one. If any one have a plan to donate for people on disaster affected situation. You can also donate to poor people who are struggling to get a food for at least one time a day. Just few more days away for Ramadan. Join your hands to support Ramadan 2021 with Muslim Charity and help needy people.
