Your donation for a small water well will truly save lives and help entire communities to break out of poverty

The UN estimates that approximately 2.2 billion people worldwide do not have easy access to clean and safe drinking water. Billions of people are compelled to drink dirty, contaminated water from rivers and streams, and often have to walk for miles each day to collect this water. Some communities manage to find clean water sources deep in the ground, but these are far from their homes and it is extremely difficult to access the water. This is particularly the case in water-scarce countries across Africa and Asia, where drought has also led to severe hunger, malnutrition and poverty. This includes Somalia and Tharparkar in Pakistan.

A new report reveals that 3,575,000 people die each year from drinking dirty and contaminated water. This statistic of over 3 million also includes almost 2 million children. In many communities where there is simply no water, families are forced to buy water from the markets.

However, these same problems persist in the very communities where families do not have enough income to allow them to comfortably buy water. It is a vicious cycle, and families often end up spending money on water instead of on food, healthcare or education, when water should be easily available to everybody for free.

In particularly dry climates where summers are long and difficult and drought has become more common due to climate change, Muslim Charity is building solar water wells. Small solar water wells serve a small community of approximately ten households, and provides between 750 and 1000 litres of water each day. These small water wells use the power of sunlight to power a motor which extracts water from deep beneath the grounds surface.

YOUR
IMPACT

A small solar water well provides clean, safe drinking water to a vulnerable household or a small community that struggles each day to find water. With solar power, families receive water throughout the year without relying on fuel or electricity.

Last year alone, Muslim Charity installed 269 solar water wells — each one transforming daily life for communities facing severe water shortages.

By sponsoring a small solar well, you can have it built in your name or in honour of a loved one, making it a beautiful act of Sadaqah Jariyah. Every drop of clean water becomes a source of ongoing blessing, and a chance for families to attend school, work safely and begin breaking out of poverty.

Our work includes both standard and large solar wells, and last year we installed 20 large solar water wells to support villages with higher water demand. Across all these projects, an incredible 54,400 people were helped last year through solar-powered wells. Your support for a small solar well contributes to this growing impact — giving life, health and dignity to communities in need.

Clean water means families no longer depend on dirty or contaminated sources, protecting them from disease and reducing medical costs. With steady access to water, communities become stronger, healthier and financially more stable. Your donation towards a small solar well will save lives and help families move towards a brighter, more secure future.

FAQs

How long does it take to build a small solar water well?

A small solar well usually takes 9–12 months from donation to completion. This includes drilling, installation and safety testing before handover. Once finished, you receive a full donor report with photos and location.

How many people benefit from a small solar well?

A small solar well supports a household or small community every day. It provides water for drinking, cooking, hygiene and daily living needs. Your donation becomes a lifeline for families with no safe water source.

Will I receive updates after donating?

Yes — donors receive a personalised feedback report once the well is complete. This includes photos of the exact well, the community benefiting and location details. It ensures full transparency and shows how your donation changed lives.

Can I build a small solar well in someone’s name?

Absolutely — you can dedicate the well in memory or honour of a loved one. Their name can appear on the plaque depending on the region’s guidelines. It becomes a meaningful act of Sadaqah Jariyah with ongoing reward.

How does a small solar water well work?

Solar panels power a pump that extracts water without fuel or electricity. This makes it reliable for remote areas with no access to power. Running costs are extremely low, keeping the well sustainable for years.

Is a small solar well reliable in the long term?

Yes — small solar wells are designed to function for many years with minimal upkeep. They run on renewable energy, so families are not burdened by fuel or electricity costs. With proper community training, the system stays reliable and continues providing clean water daily.
