June’s floods swept Shamu’s family from poverty to destitution
Emergency food aid for flood-hit families
Shamu barely scraped a living for his family by growing maize on land he rented from other people. When June’s catastrophic floods reached his village in Pakistan’s Sindh province, even this precarious livelihood was swept away. With the whole village’s cultivated crops destroyed and livestock killed, Shamu and his family were sheltering by a canal when relief workers from Pakistan Sunday School Ministry (PSSM) delivered emergency food supplies funded by Blythswood Care.
“Our aim is to help these families survive over the next three months, to save them from dying of starvation,” says Pastor Farhan who works for PSSM. “Your support helps us to show the love of Christ to depressed and helpless families in a tangible way.”
