Tens of towns and thousands of villages are under 10 feet of water amidst the worst floods in Pakistan. About 20 million people are affected: they have lost their homes, their belongings, their lifestock. They need urgent help with food, water, medicines and shelter. We applaud the efforts of so many organisations. Please donate generously to a charity of your choice. Time is of the essence.
