       Nearly 60 years of disaster response experience has taught Direct Relief that traumatic
       injuries caused by earthquakes require extensive long-term care and rehabilitation.
       Unfortunately, these health issues typically arise after emergency funds are gone. In
       recognition of this, Direct Relief has focused its available financial support for the
       Pakistan earthquake on organizations, facilities, and programs involved in rehabilitative
       medicine – ranging from prosthetics to physical and occupational therapy. Direct Relief’s
       cash investments with earthquake contributions have:
