A horrific earthquake shook Pakistan in October 2005, leaving 2.8 million people homeless and nearly 200,000 injured or dead. Since the earthquake, rain and snow continue to descend onto the affected communities causing landslides and avalanches, and making reconstruction work nearly impossible for days on end. Today, with the help of organizations like MSH, Pakistan has begun to rebuild, restore, and revive two of the hardest-hit districts—Bagh and Mansehra.
