As heavy snow and rain fall in areas of Pakistan impacted by last October's earthquake, Episcopal Relief and Development continues its support aiding communities most affected by the deadly earthquake. Nearly 80,000 people were killed and approximately 3.5 million people, 85% of who are from rural communities, have become homeless. It destroyed over 203,000 dwellings and almost 300,000 are uninhabitable due to damage. An estimated 400,000 people are now believed to be aid-dependent in the highland zone.
