Flood Relief Activities

The 2010 Flood caused severe damage in district Rahim Yar Khan. Pakistan’s worst floods in recorded history have claimed more than 1,750 lives and affected 20 million - more than a tenth of the population. A massive cascade of waters, triggered by heavy monsoon rains in late July, swept through the country, washing away homes, roads, bridges, crops and livestock. The affected area covers a vast tract of land from Northern Pakistan down to the Arabian Sea.
