2022 Devastating Flood in Sindh Pakistan
Emergency Relief
Emergency relief plays a pivotal role in providing vital assistance during the time of crisis. It encompasses swift and coordinated efforts to provide life saving means like evacuation, first aid, medical treatment and surgery, delivery of essential supplies, like food, clean drinking water, fundamental necessities like shelters, bedding and clothing to communities grappling in the aftermath of disaster or war emergency. This immediate intervention is lifeline for affected individuals, offering them a chance of survival and recovery. It represents a beacon of hope in dark times, as it not only addresses the urgent needs of those in distress but also serves as a foundation for long-term recovery and resilience-building efforts. Through the collective endeavors of humanitarian organizations and dedicated individuals, emergency relief efforts stand as a testament to human compassion and solidarity, demonstrating that even in the face of adversity, communities can come forward together to provide essential support and help pave the way for relief and rehabilitation.
Construction of New Houses
Construction of new houses for families who lost their homes in Rains & Floods. DrQuran selected most deserving families in KN Shah, District Dadu, where most underprivileged families lost their homes due to non conventional torrential rains, long lasting flood. DrQuran despite limited budget constructed 20x new houses for selected families including 2x rooms, kitchen and washrooms. Still there is lot of room to build more houses as so many families are still homeless in the area and are living in tents and shelters. Huge amount of funds are needed to build home and to provide the living areas with clean drinking water through deep boring hand water pumps and to provide sanitation and drainage.
Reconstruction of Masjid
Torrential rains prolonged over weeks and later heavy flood, which stood for months not only devastated whole infra structure including houses, roads, schools, hospitals but Masajids as well. DrQuran purchased land for Masajids at comparatively higher and safer ground and reconstructed the Masjid. One such example is reconstruction of Masjid in flood affected village of KN Shah, District Dadu with the Non-Sadqa, Non-Zakat funds to facilitate the area population (90% Muslims) to pray and use the masjid as basic teaching institution for religious and Quranic education.
Installation of Hand Water Pump
Installation of hand water pump for provision of clean drinking water. Although water supply schemes were under developed in the flood hit areas of Sindh including District Dadu before flood. Torrential rains and long lasting floods devastated the whole infrastructure of the affected area and safe clean drinking water became scarce in the area. Water is life, so DrQuran tried to provide clean drinking water for the needs of areas in Tehsil KN Shah of District Dadu and arranged installation of 40x deep bored Hand Water Pumps which are providing drinking, cleaning and washing needs of more than 100 families ( more than 400 persons).
More Hand Pumps are needed, as a big population in the area forced to drink unsafe canal water, which is causing different types of diseases of stomach, digestive system and hepatitis.
Distribution of Egg Laying Hens
Rehabilitation of Flood Affected Families – Distribution of Egg Laying Hens. Floods and Rains not only devastated infra-structure but badly affected the agriculture of the area. Agriculture and services allied with agriculture are the major profession and way of income of more than 70 percent population of the area. Rains and flood not only wasted 2x seasons of major crops but also ruined the fertility of the land. So flood brought poverty and hunger along with DrQuran besides its limited budget, in an effort to reduce the poverty of the population and to increase the income of most under privileged and unemployed families. DrQuran distributed egg laying hens ( 2x hens per lady) among 40x deserving lady heads of flood affected families to boost up their family income. Ladies thanked DrQuran on thinking and working for their family welfare.
