How to help Pakistanis affected by the floods

The Pakistani government has described the monsoon rain-caused floods as a "climate-inducted humanitarian calamity of epic proportions" with the death toll at 937 and still rising. Leaving 30 million people shelter-less, the floods have caused tremendous damage.

Many non-governmental organizations, as well as the provincial and federal governments, are putting up great effort to help individuals affected by the Flood. They will take both monetary and in-kind donations as forms of assistance. Here's how to get in touch with them and help:
