The disastrous impacts of the Flood of 2025 impacted countless families across Punjab; whole villages were inundated. The destruction from these floods was immense, but the people of Punjab are particularly resilient. There are new activities to help resettle the homes, livelihood, and hope in the affected region.
Rebuilding Education: A Bright Future for Children
Children have suffered the most without their learning tools. It is understood that education is the basis for a better future and must continue during tragedy and disaster.
To this end, support was provided as part of the Rebuild Punjab After Flood 2025 initiative to distribute backpacks, texts, and study kits containing learning essentials to children attending schools in impacted villages. Financial assistance was also given to families to assist with students’ school fees – including grade 10 board fees – to support students’ education even during a disaster.
Education can be much more than just academics: education is hope, it is a source of stability, and it is a ticket to a better life. We also encourage the Government of Punjab and the Department of Education to consider waiving Board fees, in retrospect, for the children that have been impacted by the flooding process. That one action would mean so much to families in our communities who are in the process of rebuilding their lives. Even if a full waiver is not possible, we ask that special relief programs be considered to help support education for children. When we preserve education, we are preserving recovery and resilience in Punjab for the long term.
Restoring Livelihoods: Giving Families a Fresh Start
Restoring homes is necessary, but restoring incomes is equally important. Countless families, particularly in villages like Qutabdin, lost their livelihoods in the floods. To help them recover, we are giving cows to flood-affected households so they can earn a small income and have a level of livelihood stability through dairy production.
So far, this process is having a terrific impact on the lives of many families because it is giving them a path of self-sustainability and dignity to rebuild their lives. Every day these services are growing and more villages and families are being served. Your contributions can also continue to grow this work and bring additional families and households to self-sustainability and confidence.
Urgent Need: Soil for Land Recovery. Honestly, the rains have ceased. Yet, many places are still underwater or saturated, turning farmland into rivers. The water has removed the productive soils, and it needs soil right now. We are mobilizing trucks containing soil to villages affected by the floods. However, the need is massive. Rebuilding the soil is the first step to restoring housing, farmland, and local infrastructure. Homes cannot be rebuilt without adequate land restoration. The community is working extraordinarily hard on their own, yet it will take many of us working together as citizens and organizations to expedite the recovery of the flooded areas. Every organization, no matter the size of the organization and size of the contribution, every truck of soil, every logistical support, and every dollar spent is restoring life into the region.
Once Again, the Youth Are Needed — Together, We Can Rebuild Punjab
Let’s unite and help a sinking region, for our Punjab! Though the flood has tested our strength, it has not broken the unity and resolve of Punjab’s people. The Punjab Flood 2025 impacted several thousand families, and this is a time to support and unite for those in need. Every little bit counts. Anyone who offers help, either through financial donations, physical help, or promoted awareness, is effecting change. Even the smallest acts of helping — combined — have great capacity to create wave-like support for devastated communities. Recovering from a natural disaster is a community effort and needs compassion and patience. Together – as citizens, groups, and government representatives – we will rebuild homes, restore livelihoods, and rekindle hope for families affected by the flood.
Every donation helps. Every act of service helps. Every means of support helps. When rebuilding Punjab, it is not just about the physical structure; it is about rebuilding lives, dreams, and for some, dignity.
Join the Service of Humanity. Every action, every donation, and every helping hand can help. Together we can rebuild homes, restore livelihoods, continue the education of children in our communities, and bring back hope to every corner of Punjab. Your support, big or small, can help empower the community to change, one village, one family, one child at a time.
