WaterAid is responding to the crisis in Pakistan and has allocated PKR 30 million (over
$136,000 USD) for initial emergency relief to over 40,000 people affected by the
floods.
Heavy monsoon rains and floods have affected 30 million people in Pakistan since mid-June
according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
Over 900 people were killed including 326 children
At least 95,350 homes have been destroyed.

WaterAid has initiated the flood response with the help of its local partners in Badin (Sindh), Rajanpur
(Punjab) and Swat (Khyber Pukhtunkhwa) Districts and will focus on:

•Disinfecting drinking water sources


•Providing hygiene kits
•Constructing toilets in schools/camps
•Removal of flood water
•Educational sessions on safe water, sanitation, and personal hygiene
•Supporting the needs of women and girls in flood areas including the provision of
hygiene kits
Fundraising
People working across the water industry give a great deal of support that goes way beyond
funding and awareness-raising. Each year, employees donate thousands of hours fundraising,
campaigning and raising awareness. And over the years, customers have donated over £150
million.
