Disaster in Pakistan The worst floods in Pakistan history have led to unprecedented death and destruction with

more rain predicted during this monsoon season. The United Nations has called this a global

disaster and has asked for a global response. On August 19, the US State Department

established the Pakistan Relief Fund so that “all Americans [can] join in this tremendous

relief, recovery

and

reconstruction

effort”.

Clean

drinking

water,

sanitation

and

health

supplies are a priority. Donations can be made to the Red Cross, UNICEF or the Pakistan

Relief Fund. Contact information can be found below. Our thoughts and prayers are with

our neighbors who may be directly or indirectly affected.
