5 Ways to Help Victims of the Floods in Pakistan
According to the latest news, many parts of Pakistan, especially in KPK, have been hit by torrential rains and flash floods. The country has experienced the worst spell of monsoon in years, and more rain is expected in the coming days. Floods in Pakistan are not a recent phenomenon. In 2022, more than 1700 Pakistanis died, and the country bore a loss of over USD 30 billion.
This year, more than 750 people have lost their lives since the start of the recent monsoon season, while over 1,000 have been injured.
However, the northern part of Pakistan has experienced the most damage, where more than 350 people have died. Many people are still missing, and the authorities have been carrying out rescue operations to save as many lives as possible. The death toll is expected to increase in the coming days. The authorities will also face many challenges in keeping the flood survivors safe from various diseases. In this article, we will discuss some of the difficulties that flood survivors will face in the coming weeks and how you can support them during their most difficult times.
You can play your part by donating through Transparent Hands to bring them first aid, medical care, and food. Here are five ways your donations can help the flood victims in Pakistan.
Donate for Medical Assistance
One of the main challenges for the flood victims is to stay safe from various diseases that can spread easily. More than 1,000 people have also sustained injuries in the floods. These injuries should be treated as soon as possible to avoid infections and complications. Moreover, many individuals may be carrying chronic diseases like diabetes or cardiac issues, which need regular medication. In an emergency, they may not be receiving their regular medication, which can worsen their conditions. Flood victims are also more likely to suffer from water-borne and vector-borne diseases like malaria, diarrhoea, gastric issues, respiratory infections, and skin diseases. That is why Transparent Hands is arranging free flood relief camps in the most affected areas, where our team will provide food and medical assistance to the flood-hit families. We will provide free first aid, medical checkups, diagnostic tests, and medicines.
Donate Food
Flood survivors need nutritious and healthy food to sustain themselves. Transparent Hands is providing flood victims with food packages, helping them survive, maintain their health, and meet their nutritional needs. Each food package is sufficient for a family. To bring food to the victims of floods in Pakistan, you can donate through Transparent Hands now.

Many flood survivors are scared and depressed. While many of them lost their homes, savings, and livelihoods, some of them have also lost their loved ones. By donating, you send a clear message that they will not be left alone.
