Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatu, we hope you are well in'sha'allah. 

Myself and two sisters are pledging to raise money to help those who do not have access to clean water which will have detrimental effects on their health.

With over 40% of the world grappling with water scarcity, and a staggering 2 billion plus individuals lacking access to safe drinking water, Salam Charity has a mission to extend to vulnerable communities in Pakistan, Ghana, Uganda, and Bangladesh.

Salam charity's focus on providing clean water not only satisfies a basic human need but serves as a transformative project with far-reaching impacts. Beyond facilitating essential activities like drinking and livestock care, a reliable local water supply eliminates the necessity for arduous journeys, allowing communities to engage in work, attend school, cultivate crops, and maintain better health.

Their commitment extends beyond well construction; it involves empowering local communities by imparting the skills to manage their water supply, fostering self-reliance, and contributing to our overarching mission of eradicating poverty.

 Objectives: Tackling water scarcity  

In our global fight against water scarcity, we aim to:

- Ensure Accessible Clean Water:

- Provide safe, accessible, and sufficient water sources to address the critical issue of water scarcity.

Hygiene Promotion:

- Promote good hygiene practices through awareness programs and the distribution of water containers and soap.

End Open Defecation:

- Combat open defecation through awareness campaigns and the provision of accessible facilities, targeting the 673 million still affected.

Enhance Climate Resilience:

-Build community resilience against climate change, equipping them to face environmental challenges with sustainable solutions.

Key Facts

 -Safe Drinking Water Inaccessibility Persists:

-A stark reality unfolds as 2.2 billion people worldwide still lack access to safe drinking water, emphasizing the ongoing urgency to address this fundamental human need. 

Widespread Lack of Safe Sanitation:

-Nearly half of the global population grapples with the absence of safe sanitation facilities, highlighting a pervasive challenge that demands collective and immediate attention. 

Handwashing Facilities Unavailable for Two Billion:

A staggering two billion people lack access to handwashing facilities with soap, underscoring the critical importance of promoting basic hygiene practices for improved public health.

Open Defecation Remains a Challenge:

Despite progress, 419 million people persist in practicing open defecation, reinforcing the need for sustained efforts to eliminate this unhygienic practice and promote improved sanitation worldwide.

Prior achievements:

Salam Charity has successfully implemented Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) projects across various countries, including Ghana, Uganda, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Despite progress, the prevalence of consuming stagnant and unsanitised water persists globally, contributing to severe health issues and exacerbating societal challenges. Notably, 80% of those fetching water are often children or women who should ideally be engaged in education or work. To ensure targeted impact, our local partners conduct meticulous site assessments before initiating comprehensive surveys. In 2023, our efforts resulted in the installation of mechanical borehole wells and solar-powered electrical wells strategically placed in close proximity to communities in need, fostering sustainable access to clean water in Ghana, Pakistan, Uganda, and India. 

Please donate to help those in need and earn your rewards. The Prophet (PBUH) said, “Give Sadaqah without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity.” (Tirmidhi). He also said that the best charity is to giving water to drink.  

Help us reach our goal in'sha'allah and reap your rewards by helping those in need. May Allah swt bless your efforts and ours.  

Jazakumallahu Khayran
