Dr.Dhakal from Nepal started crowdfunding for Pakistan's flood victims

Pakistan is facing one of the worst floods in its recent history. Reports say about 110 of the 150 districts in the country are affected by the flooding. 

More than 1,191 people, including over 350 children, have lost their lives. 69,438 houses have been destroyed, while many public health facilities, water systems, and schools have been destroyed or damaged.

Earlier this week, the United Nations issued a “flash appeal” for a pitiful $160 million to provide food, sanitation, drinking water, and emergency education to flood victims in response to what it termed a “colossal crisis.”

Canada and the UK have pledged similarly derisory sums to Pakistan flood relief, $5 million and $1.5 million respectively.

Likewise many other nations around the globe are helping and pledging to help Pakistan with aid and fund.

He further requested that other interested people in this campaign to message him.
