Caritas Pakistan, a non-governmental organisation, is providing food, tents, beds, blankets, water hygienic kits, mosquito nets, seed and fertilizers to around 48,232 families in the flooded areas of Sindh. Addressing a news conference here on Monday, Caritas Internationalis Secretary General Michel Roy said the organisation had been active since the flood hit parts of Sindh.
“Till date, Caritas Pakistan has distributed 700 food packages and tents in Sindh and Punjab besides establishing free medical camps. Caritas is committed to continue its humanitarian services until the affected population is rehabilitated completely,” he added. Caritas Pakistan is a member of the Federation of Caritas Internationalis and it was established in Pakistan in 1965. “The organisation has always been in the forefront to respond to emergencies, be natural or man-made disaster”, he added.
