Pakistan flood

There are many people in the Pakistan area that are suffering from the flood that is going on. The are over 2 million families that are in need of assistance. The children are getting skin diseases from the lack of soap  and clean water. The flood started seven weeks ago and is still going on. What has to be done is to get food, clean water and soap to the families stranded in the water. The World Food Programme and the Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon are researching ways to get the supplies necessary to these people. Their homes have washed away and the families are in need of shelter. One thing I think I can do is give awareness of the situation and find people who are able to donate money or fund to help these people.
