Support Pakistan's Disaster Affected Communities

Dear CDRS Family, 

CDRS is proudly moving forward into 2013 as a battle-tested and highly decorated implementing field organization of Humanitarian disaster relief (emergency and long term) and sole creator / designer / developer of The "Sustainable Healthcare Initiatives Now Empowering" conceptual model (S.H.I.N.E.) with THE SAME goals we've always been dedicated to ever since my field team and I began working together during the 2005 Pakistan earthquake relief mission, with THE SAME minimum spending and maximum effectiveness that it made its name and reputation on (which NO Similar Organization can even dream to match unless their CEOs and core staff are willing to sleep on floors, own zero personal property, work 24/7 on the lowest salaries you'll find in the non-profit World and NEVER travel above economy class), and with THE SAME amazing outcomes and positive impacts on disaster affected citizens and communities and THE SAME independently verified financial transparency that has kept wonderful donors just like you happy for years and years with the satisfaction of knowing they made a well spent contribution to a noble cause that is still serving and prospering despite facing so many epic challenges over the years. We have survived whatever has been thrown at us and only grown stronger, and we pledge to continue our hearts-and-minds winning, effective, meaningful, creative, competent, compassionate and comprehensive humanitarian interventions in some of the poorest and toughest areas of Pakistan through the following active and developing collaborations:
