In collaboration with the district administration, Qatar Charity initiated a recovery and rehabilitation project for flood-affected communities, including the reconstruction of 12 houses through the 'Model Basti' initiative. This program focused on providing permanent homes to the vulnerable villagers, offering them a sense of security and dignity after the disaster.
