Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD) signed a grant agreement with Qatar Charity (QC) to provide $13 million for the construction of houses and villages for flood-affected families in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

The initiative, which will span 18 months, aims to provide safe and durable housing for the affected communities supporting their recovery.

This initiative is part of the State of Qatar's broader humanitarian commitment, aligning with the $25 million pledge made in 2023 to support Pakistan's flood recovery efforts. Through this agreement, QFFD and QC will work together. QC will ensure that communities affected by the floods have access to secure housing, allowing them to rebuild their lives and empower them with the means to withstand from future calamities, ensuring long-term stability and resilience.

Deputy Director General of Development Projects Sector Nouf Al Kaabi stated: "This agreement reflects the State of Qatar's steadfast commitment to humanitarian assistance and sustainable recovery. By providing secure housing, we aim to restore stability and security to those impacted by the devastating floods in Pakistan.

"The climate crisis remains a pressing global issue, with far-reaching repercussions affecting communities worldwide. Nevertheless, QFFD will persist in its mission to bring peace, hope, and justice to communities in need across the globe."

Chief Global Programs Officer at Qatar Charity Nawaf Abdulla Al Hammadi stated, "At Qatar Charity, we are proud to partner with QFFD in this vital initiative to support flood-affected communities in Pakistan. This project goes beyond providing shelter; it is about restoring dignity, stability, and hope to the affected families. Through sustainable housing solutions, we aim not only to address immediate needs but also to empower communities with resilience and long-term recovery. Together, we are committed to creating lasting humanitarian impact that helps families rebuild and thrive despite adversity."
