Floods, earthquakes and displacement response.
When floods break the banks of a river, when an earthquake brings down a wall, when a family has to leave a village with what they can carry, the first needs are plain and immediate. This category is for fundraisers that respond to those events in Pakistan. It covers relief for households and villages affected by flooding, seismic damage, and displacement, whether the emergency is recent or the recovery is still going on months later.
The money raised here tends to go towards concrete things. Clean drinking water and rations. Tents, tarpaulins, and bedding for people sleeping in the open. Rebuilding a roof or a boundary wall. Replacing tools, seed, or livestock so a household can earn again. Medicine and transport to a clinic. An organiser writes what the funds are for, and as money is spent they post updates on the campaign page so you can follow where it went.
Every fundraiser starts as a draft and is read by an administrator before it can accept a single rupee. That review checks for plausibility and obvious problems. It is a person reading the story, not an audit and not independent confirmation that the events happened, so read the campaign yourself before you give. Donations are in Pakistani rupees, paid through your JazzCash or EasyPaisa wallet on your phone. If you would rather your name not appear on the public list of donors, you can give anonymously; administrators can still see who gave.
One honest limit worth stating: giving during a disaster is fast, and speed makes verification harder, not easier. An active campaign can later be paused, completed, or rejected if concerns come up, but the best protection is the few minutes you spend reading before you send money.
Start a disaster relief fundraiser
You do not have a guarantee, and it is fair to be careful. Before a fundraiser goes live an administrator reads it for plausibility and obvious problems, but that is not an audit and does not independently confirm the disaster or the organiser's connection to it. Your real check is the campaign itself: read who the organiser says they are, what the money is for, and the updates they post as it is spent. If something looks wrong, an active campaign can be paused or rejected. Give to stories that are specific and answerable rather than vague appeals.
You pay in Pakistani rupees through your JazzCash or EasyPaisa mobile wallet. You approve the payment in your wallet app on your phone. If you prefer your name not to appear on the campaign's public list of donors, you can choose to give anonymously; the organiser will not see your name in that list, though administrators can still see who donated for their own records.
You create the fundraiser and it begins as a draft. Write plainly what happened, who is affected, and what the money will pay for, tents, rations, water, rebuilding, whatever the real need is. An administrator reviews it before it can accept donations. Once it is active, post updates as you spend, since that is what lets donors see the money is doing what you said. Being specific about needs and amounts helps people trust a new campaign.
The platform does not promise refunds, so treat every donation as final and give only what you are comfortable giving. If a campaign raises concerns after it is active, an administrator can pause, complete, or reject it, but that does not automatically return money already sent. This is the honest reason to read a fundraiser carefully before you pay rather than after.
You choose the category when you create a fundraiser, and some disaster appeals may also be marked as Zakat or Sadaqah by their organisers. The platform does not assess or certify whether any campaign is Zakat-eligible. If Zakat rules matter for your giving, read the story and the organiser's description and satisfy yourself that it meets the conditions you follow, or ask someone whose judgement on this you trust.
