Flood relief effort in Pakistan

You can help

It’s all over in the news, you are already aware of the gargantuan magnitude of the flood disaster that has struck Pakistan.
1500 people killed, 20 million people so far have been affected by this super flood which spans all four provinces of the country.
Everyone here is trying to help in any way they can so I am trying to help my fellow citizens too and am collecting funds and goods for the cause.

20 million people are now homeless, all of them, including 3.5 million children, now threathened by cholera and other deadly diseases (dysentery, malaria, dengue fever, typhoid), 900,000 homes damaged 80% of food reserves are washed away, 558000 hectars of farm land under water wasting crops worth over a billion dollars, 8 million people in need of urgent food and water supplies, fifth of the country is submerged by floodwaters. (statistics 19/08/2010, getting worse every day, source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4, source 5)

It’s Ramadan and millions of the flood affectees are barely getting enough of their daily food! So give your charity for this holy month to the flood victims.

With a French colleagues who provide his technical resources and expertise, I decide to set-up this fundraising platform, where I will let you download movies, music, photos and other works of art.
A lot of companies sell music and video on the web… So why not?
This platform has been set-up with zero cost (thanks internet), except the fee of the money collect and transfer (paypal and Western Union). So all the money you put in will be received directly in Pakistan and distributed ; I will make sure the help will go to the right persons.
The authors and artists involved already agreed to release some of their copyright, which makes it OK for me to use their work for non commercial fundraising and charity.
