Please see this note below from my friend Ms. Maliha Hussain who has served in the Pakistan Foreign Service, the Agha Khan Foundation, and currentlyy heads one of the few Consultancy groups headed by a woman in Pakistan. She is based in Islamabad, and has put everything aside to dedicate herself to serve the Earthquake victims full time. This is someone who would not write such a letter unless things were really tough. Please let me know if we can send some of the funds collected to her? You can be confident that it will reach the right people through Maliha. Any help you can give Maliha will be greatly appreciated. Thanking you in advance.

Several camps have been established in Islamabad for families who have lost everything. The earthquake has literally swallowed up their land. They have lost their homes, family members and all their belongings. A lot of individuals and organizations are helping but it is just not enough. We have been taking blankets and food but it is just not enough. Today a woman told me that she had not had a cup of tea since the earthquake and she just wanted a cup of tea. The problem is that you cannot take one cup of tea you need to take at least 500!!!!. Can you raise some funds and help out so that we can provide them blankets and some food items. We have clothes. Love Maliha H.
