Supporting Pakistan Flood Relief

I’d like to draw your attention today to a cause of paramount importance. Peanut Labs, a leader in social media market research, is holding a fundraiser in support of humanitarian relief for the victims of the recent devastating floods in Pakistan.

From the Peanut Labs announcement:

Through the rest of the month of August, Peanut Labs is aiming to raise $25,000 for what the UN deems the “Worst Natural Disaster Ever.” Funds raised during the month of August will go towards providing food, water, field hospitals, emotional support, telecommunications and sanitation facilities to the people of Pakistan.

Research Access has pledged its support to this important cause, and we encourage you to do the same. You can join the campaign via Facebook and receive updates on the campaign’s progress. Anyone interested in donating directly can send money via PayPal to ali@peanutlabs.com or SMS smaller donations to the UNHCR by texting SWAT to 50555. All donations made via PayPal will be sent directly to the Association for Development of Pakistan (ADP) who has agreed to match the $25,000 donation.
