AMMAN, Nov 3: Jordan’s Queen Rania on Thursday launched a television appeal for the child victims of last month’s devastating earthquake in Pakistan.
“The children of the Pakistan earthquake need you. Many are sick and injured. And now, the outbreak of disease poses an immediate and very real threat,” the queen says in a public service announcement.
“It only takes five dollars to immunize a child and give him or her a new lease on life. Help us reach the four million children who need protection from disease.”
The media campaign has been launched in cooperation with the UN children’s fund, Unicef, and the public service announcements were being aired on television stations carried by Arabsat and Euro Sat.
Queen Rania visited earthquake survivors in Muzaffarabad last week as a representative of Unicef, and took a planeload of relief supplies.
