Re: Please donate to help earthquake victims of Pakistan.
As far as i know, PIA in Houston only has passenger flights…and y only Houston?
New York has *cargo* flights to Pakistan...maybe they can do something...but i think monetary donations are the best way to help if u can, as Captain Lota said...
Re: Please donate to help earthquake victims of Pakistan.
sorry to say but I have 0 (zero) faith in our government/ministeries. We might donate US$1000, but what would reach the victims will be $20, however if you donate thru private charity organizations chances are that %70 of that will reach the victims … 30% will be used in achieving the goal.

I think goods would be better.. .less chance of fraud or theft. Good quality woollen blankets are needed.

Karachi residents can directly donate cloths, tents, medicines, food etc at PAF Museum at shahra-e-faisal. It is a breath taking scene, i was there after mid night & i have never seen such a massive relief program. Its huge, hundreds of volunteers (guys/girls) were helping army officials to collect/sort/pack stuff. The amount of donations were enormous, even after mid night ppl were coming non-stop.
If u go there please note that it is not a picnic point & seconds matter, there r alot of ppl who will guide which way u need to go depending on what sort of things u brought (i.e. medicine, cloths etc) follow the directions, u dont need to switch off ur car if its not needed, neither u need to step out of it, there r dozens of ppl who can take care of things u brought, just keep moving so hundreds of cars behind u can take there turns as soon as possible.
