Flood relief for Pakistan

Flood relief for Pakistan
Right now, a third of Pakistan is under water.

Children have been swept under gushing waters, 33 MILLION people have been displaced, and over 1,100 are recorded as dead. 

The country is buckling under the aftermath of a monster monsoon, and still struggling to mobilise funds for emergency relief. We can help!

Brave doctors and aid workers are working round the clock, doing all they can to help save lives. But devastating climate events like this ARE a reflection of a systemic failure -- of rich nations pumping TRILLIONS into fossil fuels while refusing to protect frontline communities.

These communities deserve more than our one-time charity.

If enough of us donate, we’ll create an emergency response fund: paying for food, medicine, and health supplies for the most vulnerable. And, we won’t stop there -- at the upcoming G20 summit and Climate COP in Egypt, we’ll go all out to get rich governments to fulfil their Paris pledge and shoulder the costs of protecting nations most at risk from climate disasters.

As devastation seeps in and hanging to hope becomes more difficult, finding refuge in the power of collective resistance and solidarity is our best shot. Chip in now -- let’s help Pakistan’s people in their hour of need, and fight for a livable climate and future for all.
