Update: On behalf of the MSA, we would like to thank all our members for their support and generous donations towards the Pakistan Relief Fund. So far, we have helped raise more than $7500, which is equivalent to almost 600,000 Pakistani rupees. Alhamdulillah, we have already exceeded our goal of $5000. With the help of the Canadian government’s dollar-for-dollar matching program, our donations to this cause will be doubled.

MSA is still accepting cheques and online donations till Sunday, September 12th, which is the last day of the Canadian government’s matching program. We also urge you all to make the most of this blessed month of Ramadan by donating to help nearly 20 million victims of this mega-disaster.

MSA is urgently requesting emergency rescue and relief funds for the victims of devastating floods in Pakistan.

According to the BBC and other sources:
- Heavy rains and floods have affected about 17 to 20 million people
- Nearly 1.2 million houses have been destroyed
- About 1600 people have been killed so far
- The situation has now turned into the “worst disaster in Pakistan’s history”
