Hi,

We are setting up an Emergency Flood Relief & Recovery Campaign for the people oft northern Pakistan (Gilgit-Baltistan) where our friend Hamid graciously took us in when we were visiting a while back. He reached out to us with the following message, which gives us just an idea of how dire the situation is:

Hello dear brother,

I hope you are fine and must be doing great and must have heard about the disaster In Gilgit . Gilgit-Baltistan is currently facing severe destruction due to natural disasters. The village of Hasina’s (my wife) uncles has been completely devastated—homes, land, and livestock have all been lost. We are urgently raising funds to support the affected families with food supplies and essential non-food items. So far, over 51 families have been directly impacted. Could you please reach out to your friends and community to ask for any donations they can offer? Every contribution will help us provide immediate relief to those in desperate need. We wanted to share this with you, as we believe this is also an important opportunity to be an encouragement during such a time of crisis.

Thank you for your prayers and for standing with these families through this challenging situation.

Thank you so much!

Blessings,

Hamid

On that note the situation is ever evolving and circumstances could always worsen. Stay up to date:
