Give water

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “The best charity is giving water to drink and He was the most generous in giving charity.” (Hadith Ahmad)

£880- Install a deep water well in a drought-hit community, helping to transform a village of 105 people in Pakistan.

£880 – build a deep water well in a vulnerable and impoverished community in Bangladesh, benefiting 105 people.

Leave a legacy of mercy for yourself or a loved one and reap the ongoing blessings of Sadaqah Jariyah.

One day you wake up and there’s no more water coming from your tap. How will you quench your thirst, how will you feed your family, how will you water your plants? Having fasted all day, how will you have iftar with no water to drink? This is the reality for too many people this Ramadan.

When you donate a water well - in your own name or in the name of a loved one - an entire community of around 105 people will have water for drinking, cooking, washing, and farming.

This Ramadan, be the reason an entire village thrives. Transform lives forever and reap the ongoing blessings of giving a Sadaqah Jariyah in Ramadan.

The transformative power of a water well

With the power of a water well, women and children no longer must make long, treacherous journeys to fetch water. A water well saves individuals, families, and whole communities valuable time, so women can take care of children, children can be educated, crops can be planted, and livestock can be tended to.

Water doesn’t just quench thirst – it allows for cooking, bathing, cleaning, and watering crops. It transforms a community, empowering residents to flourish while leaving an ongoing legacy of hope.

A merciful gift that lasts

It’s an incredible blessing to be able to give water. As the best of charities, it offers blessings and protection in this life and the hereafter, transforming the lives of people facing incredible hardship.

A water well is more than just giving money, it’s saving and transforming lives and communities, while establishing your legacy in the hereafter.

This Ramadan, you can serve a whole community, year after year, putting the prophetic teaching of charity into practice. Every time water from your well quenches a person’s thirst, grows a vegetable, feeds an animal, or enables a child to go to school, your legacy continues.

In this holy month of Ramadan, let every drop of water create a ripple of reward for you in the hereafter.

Leave a lasting legacy of love

“When a person dies, his deeds come to an end, except for three: ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him.” (Hadith Muslim)

This beautiful hadith reminds us of the blessings of ongoing charity. If you donate a water well in the name of a loved one, they will reap the endless rewards of Sadaqah Jariya, long after they’re gone. We’ll place a plaque in the name of your loved one on the well and send you a report once your well is installed.

Multiply your blessings by donating in Ramadan, when good deeds are rewarded many times over.

Give water together

Create a legacy together by pooling your donations with your friends, family, or colleagues to donate a water well together. We’ll place a plaque in your names on the well and send you a report on when and where your well was installed.

Everything you need to know about your well

  • How long will it take to build my well? Why?

    It usually takes around 9 months for us to build your well, and a further 3 months for you to receive your report. It takes this long to ensure that the well we install is in the best location for maximum impact and to source clean water.

    Throughout the process, we supervise installation, and we then test the water quality at certified labs to make sure it’s clean and safe.

    Only once this is complete, we install your plaque, take final photos, and write up a report which is checked, edited, and sent to you, the donor.

  • How long does a well usually last?

    A well lasts a minimum of five years, but its lifetime depends on the quality and consistency of maintenance. Our wells have the capacity to last well beyond five years providing the source water hasn’t depleted and the well is properly maintained.

    Even if a well lasts only five years – that means it costs less than 50p per day to provide water to a whole community!

  • How will I know when my well has been completed?

    We’ll send you a completion report, informing you that your well has been installed and is now providing clean, safe water to a whole community.

  • What is included in the completion report for my well?

    You’ll receive a full report that tells you where we installed it, what the situation was in the community, and how many people will benefit. We’ll also send you photos of the well, and of the plaque we’ve installed in your name or the name of your loved one.

  • How does Human Appeal select a location for the well?

    Our selection is based on the need of the local community, and how far they currently have to travel to fetch clean water. For the exact position of the well, we hire a water expert to help us find sustainable water sources deep in the earth, that are far from any potential contamination – such as latrines – so that your well provides water year after year.

    When choosing a location, we focus on communities in which a minimum of five families would benefit, though, on average, around 70 people benefit from one well.

  • Who safeguards and maintains the well after it has been built?

    Every time we install a well, we also train a water well committee in the local community. This means that those who benefit from the clean water also have the skills to maintain the well, ensuring that there’s always people nearby to make sure it’s used and preserved properly.

  • Can a well be donated as Sadaqa Jariyah (ongoing charity)?

    Yes! Since its benefits continue year upon year, donating a water well is a Sadaqah Jariyah, that provides the giver with ongoing rewards, even after they’re gone.

  • Why should I donate my well with Human Appeal?

    We’ve been installing water wells for 30 years. We don’t have a one-size-fits-all mentality, our experienced teams work with the local community and water experts to agree on what type of water solution works best. For example, where there is plenty of water, but it is unclean, we install filtration systems or water plants, where there is drought, we source groundwater and install a deep water well.

    If you want your donation to have a lasting, transformative impact on a whole community, then entrust your water well to our experience and expertise.

“The best charity is giving water to drink and He (saw) was the most generous in giving charity.”

Ahmad

Put the prophetic teaching of charity into practice. You can serve a whole community in Pakistan or Bangladesh of around 105 people, year after year. Every time your well allows a person to quench their thirst, grow a plant, feed an animal, or work instead of spending their day fetching water, that will be your blessed legacy. You can even pool smaller donations with your friends, family or colleagues, and donate a water well together, reaping the ongoing rewards.
