Since late 2000, Hidaya Foundation (www.hidaya.org) has sent over one hundred 40' ocean-freight containers filled with clothing, medical equipment, educational supplies, and household items to Pakistan and other countries from many communities in USA.
Detailed reports of recent years can be viewed by visiting: http://www.hidaya.org/social-welfare/container-shipment/
On July 20th, 2010 one container arrived in Pakistan and two more were shipped on July 24, 2010 from California. All three containers plus over 12,000 family packs ready to be distributed will be given to flood affectees during the next few weeks.
Due to the severity of flooding in Pakistan, Hidaya Foundation is offering assistance to communities throughout USA to hold collection drives for blankets, winter clothing, shoes, pots/pans, and other usable supplies for flood relief purposes.
Hidaya Foundation will support communities that come forward by:
· providing guidelines for successful collection drives
· handling logistics such as delivery and pickup of the container in USA
· shipping the container to Pakistan and clearing through customs
· sorting and distributing the relief supplies to thousands of families impacted by this disaster
The individuals and communities organizing the collection drives will be responsible for:
· organizing collection drives of relief supplies
· collecting donations for the costs of shipping, customs clearance, and distribution (approx. $5,000)
