Devastated

The Kashmir region of Pakistan, already racked by a slow-burn war with India, has now born the brunt of the worst natural disaster in Pakistan's history. The death toll, officially hovering around 20,000 seems to be growing exponentially.

At this point I don't know what you can do to help, but as various aid efforts come to light, we'll try to post a few. I don't know if they are officially calling for donations, but Doctors Without Borders is already on the scene providing direct assistance and has a tragic audio report posted online from their project coordinator in Kashmir who also lost his house and had to rescue fellow aid workers.
