An Earthquake knows no boundaries. Neither should humanity.
Even as AID is working to establish contact and support relief efforts through groups working on the Indian side of affected region there is an even greater human tragedy on the Pakistani side both in terms of the devastation that has occurred and in terms of the loss of life and limb.
