ISLAMABAD (Sept. 2, 2010) – The U.S. is providing nearly $2 million to a local partner to address the emergency needs of flood-displaced residents in Ghotki, Khairpur, and Thatta districts in Sindh.

The money will be used to help approximately 49,000 families in these flood-affected districts through the distribution of emergency shelter kits, household items, and family hygiene kits.  The money will also be used to provide access to clean drinking water.

The emergency shelter kits consist of plastic sheeting, floor mats and rope. The household kits contain items such as cooking sets, battery powered lamps and a padlock. The family hygiene kits provide personal hygiene items sufficient for two to three weeks for a family of seven. Finally, the additional funding will go toward the emplacement of water tankers that will help provide potable water for the 49,000 families for 90 days.

The United States has provided more than $200 million in emergency humanitarian assistance to the people of Pakistan to date.  In support of the Government of Pakistan, the current U.S. flood relief priorities are to reach those in inaccessible areas and provide them aid, assure the current flood emergency is not compounded by a health crisis, and utilize all appropriate United States government relief resources efficiently and effectively.
