Pakistan Flood Relief Drive

Torrential rains have triggered massive floods across Pakistan, impacting over 33 million people and claiming over 1100 lives. We are asking all of our friends to make generous donations to any relief funds doing active work on ground.

OPEN Silicon Valley charter members have committed $100,000 to match donations to support flood victims in Pakistan with an aim to raise $250,000 from San Francisco Bay Area. We need your support to reach this goal!
