Greetings Everyone.
First of all a huge thank you to everyone for reading this post. This is the official account of the World Smile Project Pakistan.
Since last week, a huge catastrophe has hit Pakistan from all sides which has resulted in more than 1500 deaths in less than a week. Pakistan is facing severe flooding in the Northern region. The southern belt. The Southern Punjab and Balochistan. Up till now, the flood has affected more than 20 million people and tens of thousands of people have evacuated from the houses leaving everything behind.
Sixty-six districts have been officially declared Calamity Hit by the Government of Pakistan: 31 districts in Balochistan, 23 in Sindh, 9 in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and 3 in Punjab. The situation is extremely severe and many more districts are affected. The number of districts declared calamity hit are expected to rise in the coming days due to the nonstop rain and the swollen rivers. Over 220,000 houses have been destroyed and a further 452,000 have been damaged in this month, according to the National Disaster Management Authority.
This is the condition of the area of one of Pakistan's active steemian, @event-horizon in her own words:
Flood emergency has been imposed in our area as well. Next few hours are critical. Nearby small villages have already been hit.
River Kabul was already over-flowing and last night Munda headworks collapsed as well which created a lot of panic. 4lac+ cusec water was expected between 2am-4am. We stayed up last night waiting for evacuation signal but luckily water didn't flow towards our area. And unfortunately, it caused havoc in Charsadda (15-20km away from my place). Till morning, 2.5 lac cusec water was recorded there and since then the level has been rising and now reached 3lac+. Even if goes up 4, I hope it will not affect us as much because our area is slightly higher than Charsadda and Nowshehra.
The WSP PAKISTAN leader, @huzaifanaveed1 belongs to Karachi. Karachi has not been declared critical yet but all the neighboring villages have drowned by 90% with huge refugees migrating towards Karachi.
WSP Pakistan leader, @huzaifanaveed1 made a post about it yesterday on his personal account yesterday, showing the conditions in his province and neighboring villages and cities.
WSP Pakistan is a charity based account that is dedicated to help the Pakistani people in desperate times like these, we ask for help from all the steemians around the world.
The Process
Since WSP Pakistan works with absolute transparency and believes that all the donors have the right to know where their charity is going. I'll be explaining the process to you.
The WSP Pakistan leader, @huzaifanaveed1 is linked with two of the biggest humanitarian charity organizations in Pakistan. These are:
- Al-Khidmat Organisation
- JDC Organisation
Since there's a complete cut off of transportation through roads to the flood affected areas, these two organizations are have beem sending air support to the affected areas. For that, we desperately need funds as the Government hasn't taken any step yet.
@huzaifanaveed1 has been actively present, and has taken part in these camps which are collecting donations for providing all the necessary items for the flood affected areas.

With the WSP leader being personally present at the camps, each and every receipt will be recorded and will be provided through the @smilepakistan account with absolute transparency.
Target
We know, it's a huge amount that will be required to help these people all over Pakistan and it would be impossible to get these amounts from here. So for that, we have decided that we will only be collecting donations for only ONE district and that is the Sindh District.
