Mobilink Foundation Helping Flood Victims in Sindh


Pakistan is encountering one of the worst natural disasters in its history in the shape of devastating floods. In this difficult time, millions of our brothers and sisters immediately need our help and support.

Together, Mobilink and Orascom Telecom has committed more than Rs. 236 million towards flood relief in addition to contributing thousands of volunteer hours. This to date is one of the largest relief initiatives from the private sector.

Mobilink has been recognized by the Overseas Investor’s Chamber of Commerce and Industries (OICCI) as top donor in flood relief amongst member companies.

Mobilink has donated prefabricated sheets worth Rs. 140 million to WHO which will be used as Health Units across Pakistan. In addition to these shelters, Mobilink with the support of Orascom Telecom Holding has committed a comprehensive relief-package, worth Rs. 85 million for the flood affectees. Additionally, over Rs. 10 million have been raised by Mobilink employees through their salaries and friends and family; SMS donations, and other private donors.

Our teams have reached more than 16,600 families in far-flung areas including the surroundings of Multan, Muzaffargarh, Nowshera, Layyah, Charsadda, Swat, Thatta, Sukkur, D.I. Khan as well as smaller towns and villages across Pakistan. We are now providing dry food rations such as flour, oil and lentils as well as non-food items including towels, kitchen utensils and hygiene kits to facilitate the rehabilitation process. We hope to further enhance these efforts with your support.
