The IRC is helping families in northern Pakistan construct temporary shelters and rebuild homes lost to the October 8 earthquake. Muhammad Saheed and his family are living in a tent until their tin-roofed temporary shelter is ready. Muhammad worries each time a heavy snowfall is expected, knowing that too much weight will collapse their fragile home. Link
