9 UAE humanitarian organisations join the 'We Stand Together' nationwide initiative to support flood victims in Pakistan

 As many as 9 humanitarian organizations in the United Arab Emirates have joined the "We Stand Together" initiative to deliver thousands of emergency relief kits to women and children affected by the flood in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. 

Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan Foundation, Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Humanitarian and Charity Establishment, The Big Heart Foundation, Dar Al Ber, International Humanitarian City, UAE Water Aid Foundation, Sharjah Charity House, International Charity Organisation, and Emirates Charitable Association have joined the initiative to show solidarity with affected Pakistani families.

The initiative was launched by Emirates Red Crescent (ERC), Dubai Cares, and Sharjah Charity International, in coordination with the Ministry of Community Development (MoCD) and Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MoFAIC) in the UAE. The authorities have also invited volunteers to register and participate in the initiative.

The event is set to take place on 10 September 2022 at 9:00 am across three locations: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah. This highlights the UAE’s collective commitment to support the people of Pakistan during the ongoing crisis.

Under the directives of the UAE president, His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the relief kits will be distributed to the flood victims. The relief kits will include food supplies like flour, rice, lentils, and oil. 

Over the weekend, the Emirates Red Crescent delivered urgent aid to Pakistan, which underlines the UAE’s commitment to a humanitarian approach.

Earlier, the UAE sent around 3,000 tonnes of food and medical supplies to flood victims in Pakistan. The Joint Operations Command of the Ministry of Defence sent humanitarian aid to Pakistan through an air bridge. Subsequently, Pakistan’s Prime Minister thanked His Highness for the urgent relief dispatched to help the flood victims. 

The country has always been interested in charitable work. Recently, the UAE also helped flood victims in Sudan after the flood caused the crisis in the country.
