As everyone enjoys this `Eid, we would like to remind you that there are still many men, women, children, and elderly in earth quake affected Pakistan and elsewhere who are not as fortunate as we are. We request everyone to make their celebrations simple and pass any savings along to the people in Pakistan .
The winter will hit the earthquake affectees in the middle of November and it has already reached sub-zero temperatures in many earthquake affected areas. Many families are sleeping out in the unbearable cold. Children have already started dying due to bronchitis and pneumonia.
The need for tents (temporary shelter) and food items is still the greatest need at this time and will continue to be, in the weeks to come. To donate online using your Checking Account or Credit Card for tents please visit:
