The Canadian Pakistani Pakhtoon Community Association (CPPCA) in collaboration with HEART Canada has launched this urgent fundraiser to support families in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Pakistan who have been devastated by recent floods.
Entire communities have lost homes, crops, and livelihoods. Families are in urgent need of food, shelter, clean water, and medical support.
As a community-based organization in Canada, CPPCA is committed to standing with our brothers and sisters in their time of need. 100% of the donations will go directly towards:
Emergency food packages for displaced families
Shelter materials for those who have lost homes
Medical aid and clean water supplies
Support for children and vulnerable groups
We will provide regular updates, photos, and reports to ensure complete transparency on how funds are being distributed.
Every dollar counts — whether it’s $10, $50, or more, your contribution will directly save lives and bring relief to those suffering.
