We've selected remote areas of Chittral for relief

By Tara Dawood | President

Possibly the worst of the affected areas is Chittral, particularly the remove areas which traditionally don't get relief. Thanks to the support of Global Giving and donors such as yourself, we are heading into some major danger zones with the escort of UNDP.

The funding to date has helped us to arrange some blankets

And water

We also have some cookies.

But, it's not enough. There is s growing number of the most vulnerable of all groups - widows, orphans and women. They are still in distress and most of all, they need trauma counselling.

"I don't know what this all means," Ayesha (names changed to protect) a 29 year old widow with three children states. "What kind of future is there for me."

That's why we are planning to take a psychologist with us.

The journey is dangerous. The area even more so.

We need your help.

Spread the word so that we can help more numbers when we go. It's winter now. It's cold. More funding means more blankets, more water, more cookies, ideally a second counsellor. More people helped.

We need you. Now.
