Volunteers lead relief efforts in Pakistan floods

The World

Volunteer groups in Pakistan have been stepping up to aid those affected by the flooding. One volunteer, Taseer Tareen, who witnessed the first effects of the floods firsthand, shared videos to his traveling Facebook group, The Karakoram Club, that went viral. Since then, Tareen has been leading volunteer relief efforts in Pakistan with group members. Today he joins The World’s Marco Werman to talk about his experiences and how the group has been helping.
