Story

Once more, our Kashmiri brothers and sisters are suffering, through

no fault of their own.

At least five civilians have been killed in Indian-administered Kashmir

since 4th August, and thousands have been injured, humiliated and

assaulted. The enforced curfew means that people have been trapped in

their homes, unable to work or go to the market, meaning that supplies

of food, water and medicine are running dangerously low.

Penny Appeal are working with a local partner to provide food, water,

and medical supplies in Southern Kashmir.

Our Medical Kits will provide families with urgent medical supplies,

including insulin, blood pressure medication, and other essentials. Our

partner has also been running an extra ambulance service for those

injured; theyve transported almost 250 critically injured individuals to the

hospital since the crisis began, and we will be helping them to continue

this critical service.

Food and Water Packs will provide essentials to those in dire need,

including bottled water, rice, sugar, flour, oil, lentils, tea, beans and

spices. This will stop Kashmiri families from going hungry, and give them

comfort in the midst of a crisis.

Baby Food Packs are made up of milk powder and nutritious baby food.

There is no reason that the most innocent of all should be made to

suffer; we all need to help.

Please join Penny Appeal in Scotland, and help us stand in solidarity

and offer practical help to Kashmir.
