Flood Relief for Kashmir
When the Jhelum rises, families can lose everything in hours. Your flood relief funds the emergency response — food, clean water, shelter — and the long work of rebuilding.
About this giving
What is Flood Relief?
Kashmir sits in a flood-prone bowl drained by the Jhelum river. The catastrophic floods of September 2014 submerged much of Srinagar and south Kashmir for weeks, displacing hundreds of thousands — and the risk returns with heavy rain and snowmelt.
Flood relief works in two phases: the immediate emergency — rescuing, feeding, and sheltering families cut off by water — and the recovery that follows, helping households repair homes and replace what the water destroyed.
Who your gift helps
Families in low-lying and flood-prone areas of Srinagar, south Kashmir, and around the Wular basin whose homes, livelihoods, and belongings are lost or damaged when waters rise.
