The Challenge

We would like to invite you to this unique opportunity to be a partner of a once in a lifetime challenge. A group of our supporters are undertaking this strenuous challenge event to raise awareness of the plight of the forgotten victims of the pakistan Flood victims.

The floods affected over 20 million people. Hundreds of thousands of homes and the livelihoods of their inhabitants were swept away by the flooding that followed the heavy monsoon rains in July 2010. At least 1,700 people were killed, over 6 million people were displaced, and in some areas over 80% of all buildings were destroyed. Over 722,000 houses damaged or destroyed. Even throughout this winter, thousands of people are still living in tents, doing their best to survive amongst the terrible devastation.

Penny Appeal plans to build ten £1,500 houses under the Rebuilding Pakistan Appeal. Future plans for the village include the provision of infrastructure, family-, education-, health-, and business support as well as other amenities to truly support and re-build this community.

The Cause

The Rebuilding Pakistan Appeal aims to build permanent homes in the village of Kamar Mashani, within the Punjab region, Pakistan. The houses will be of solid construction, built from bricks and cement, and will be considerably more secure than the properties destroyed by the floods. Each house will have two bedrooms, a kitchen, bathroom, living area and a veranda - and will only cost £1,500 each to build.
