More Manx aid for Pakistan flood victims

Thu, 02 Sep 2010

The Isle of Man's Overseas Aid Committee has announced it's increasing its donation to help the victims of the floods in Pakistan.

A further £145,000 has been pledged, on top of £40,000 already given to the Disasters Emergency Committee.

Since the original donation from the Island, the situation in Pakistan has worsened.

The Overseas Aid Committee is also urging everyone on Island to support those raising money for the cause locally.
