Access to clean water is essential for life, yet 663 million people worldwide are still without this basic necessity. The lack of clean water directly impacts health, education, and economic opportunity. This Ramadan, your donation can help change this.
In the blessed month of Ramadan, the act of giving is magnified, and there’s no better time to extend your generosity to those in need of one of life’s most precious resources — clean water. Your support will help provide sustainable water solutions to communities that lack access, improving lives and ensuring a healthier future for generations.
Water is essential for all aspects of life. However, for millions worldwide, the lack of clean water limits their quality of life and their opportunities. In many communities, access to clean water remains a daily struggle.
Each year, 443 million school days are lost due to water-related illnesses. Contaminated water kills 1,000 children every day from diseases such as diarrhoea, typhoid, cholera, and dysentery. These illnesses prevent children from attending school, limit their potential, and contribute to the cycle of poverty. The absence of clean drinking water means a community’s potential is left untapped, and prosperity remains out of reach.
Access to clean water is a key to breaking this cycle. It keeps children in school, prevents early death, and helps lift communities out of poverty by enabling them to build a stable economy and sustainable agricultural practices.
By donating to Human Concern UK, you’re helping to provide life-saving water to communities in need, particularly in drought-stricken areas where water scarcity is a constant struggle. Our efforts on the ground focus on providing sustainable, clean drinking water solutions through the construction of water systems, wells, and other water-related infrastructure.
Through our WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) programmes, we work closely with local partners who understand the challenges faced by their communities. Together, we implement practical solutions that can provide long-term relief. We don’t stop at providing water — we invest in local communities to manage and maintain these water systems, ensuring that they continue to benefit for generations to come.
This Ramadan, make your donation count. By providing clean water, you are not only saving lives, but you are also investing in the future of families, children, and communities. Your generosity ensures that communities can thrive, grow, and build a prosperous future, all while earning countless rewards from Allah (SWT).
While a donor may choose a water well in Asia or Africa, we cannot guarantee that we can fulfill requests for a specific country in two continents as we build wells where most needed. A donor may share their preference with us along with their receipt via email at [email protected] and we will try our best to fulfill their request; however, we cannot guarantee that they will be accommodated.
Human Concern UK currently has water well projects in Kenya, Somalia, Bangladesh, India and Pakistan.
Yes, you may add an inscription of up to 25 characters to your water well. Please share your donation receipt along with your inscription with us via email at [email protected]
It takes between 6 to 8 months for well construction to be completed. This timeline excludes the pre- and post-construction phases, which should be noted. Please also note that unforeseen situations such as weather conditions, political unrest, and travel restrictions in the countries where we work can impact this timeline and may result in further delays.
Yes, donors will receive photos of their completed wells and in some cases videos and construction photos of wells while they are in progress.
Shallow water wells with hand pumps, which are most of the Human Concern UK’s water wells, have a lifespan of about 8-15 years.
