The media is really starting to get the message out regarding the horrible flooding in Pakistan.  I have received a request from one of our partners in Pakistan that we have worked with for many years.  I have attached the document for your viewing.  It is just awful over there and the suffering is increasing.  If people ask where they should send there donations, I just want  you to know that World Accord will be sending donations to INSAN.  Thanks and bless you all. 
In Peace.
