Reliable Water Where It’s Needed Most

In many rural areas of Ethiopia and Kenya, families rely on unsafe surface water for drinking, cooking, and washing. Long journeys to collect water expose women and children to health risks and rob them of time for education and work. Water hand pump wells offer a practical and sustainable solution. They deliver clean groundwater close to home, improving health, safety, and daily life for entire communities.

They Offer:

Affordable Access: A cost-effective solution bringing clean water to underserved villages.
Health Protection: Reduces waterborne diseases caused by contaminated sources.
Community Use: Easy to maintain and designed for long-term daily use.

Sa’d ibn ‘Ubadah reported: I said, “O Messenger of Allah, my mother has died. Shall I give charity on her behalf?” The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Yes.” I said, “Which charity is best?” The Prophet said, “A drink of water.”

The Bigger Picture

Why Hand Pump Wells Are Critical:

Across East Africa over 300 million people still lack access to safely managed drinking water.
In Ethiopia, more than 40% of rural communities rely on unsafe surface water sources such as ponds and rivers.
Waterborne diseases account for up to 60% of illnesses in areas without clean water access.
Women and children spend up to 6 hours a day collecting water, limiting education and income opportunities.

Hand pump wells offer an immediate, life-saving solution while strengthening long-term community stability and health.

Together we make impossible possible. Discover more about what we do here.
