About this appeal

Fund an electric water well for the Rohingya community for £900. Drilled 300 feet deep, it brings clean water to 300 people, a Sadaqah Jariyah that continues every time someone drinks or washes.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, “The best charity is giving water to drink.” (Ahmad) This act of Sadaqah Jariyah (ongoing charity) will continue to benefit those in need and bring you lasting rewards in the Hereafter.

By supporting this life-saving project, you’re offering a vital resource to a community in desperate need.

Each time someone drinks or uses the water, you’ll share in the blessings. By supporting this project, you’re doing more than building a well—you’re bringing hope, ease, and health to a community that desperately needs it.

Let your generosity flow like the water from this well and become a source of relief and endless

Frequently Asked Questions

Confused about donating? Take a look at our frequently asked questions below.

What types of water projects do you fund?

Global Helping Hands funds deep water wells and hand pumps. Deep water wells reach deep aquifers, providing long-lasting, high-quality water to large communities. Hand pumps are more affordable and easier to maintain, ideal for smaller communities. Both significantly improve access to clean water and promote better health and well-being.

How are the locations for wells and pumps chosen?

We collaborate with local communities and authorities to identify areas with the greatest need. Factors like population size, water scarcity, and potential health benefits are considered. Community involvement ensures our projects address urgent needs and have lasting impacts.

Can I choose the location for my donation?

Yes, you can suggest a location for your donation. We will consider your preference and do our best to accommodate it. However, final decisions are based on thorough needs assessments and logistical considerations to ensure maximum impact and sustainability.

How much does it cost to fund a well or hand pump?

The cost varies by project type and location. Deep water wells are more expensive due to the complexity of drilling, while hand pumps are more affordable. Visit our donation page for detailed cost information.

Our team is dedicated to providing the support you need, whether it's answering your questions, addressing your concerns, or helping you with any changes to your situation. We are here to help and ensure your experience with us is as smooth and satisfactory as possible.

Thank you for choosing our services. We look forward to assisting you.

Will I receive updates on my donation?

Yes, donors receive email updates with photos and video. Once the well or pump is completed, we will send you a photo showing it with a plaque bearing your name or the name you chose to dedicate, ensuring transparency and demonstrating the impact of your contribution.

Can I dedicate my donation to someone?

Absolutely. You can dedicate your donation in honour or memory of a loved one. When you make your donation, you can provide the name you wish to display on the plaque. This dedication will be a meaningful tribute and a lasting reminder of your support for clean water access.

How long does it take to complete a water project?

Your water project will be completed within 6 months of your donation, from the initial site assessment to the finished well or pump. We keep donors informed with regular updates throughout the process.

What other ways can I help besides donating?

There are many ways to support Global Helping Hands' mission beyond monetary donations. You can volunteer your time and skills, participate in fundraising events, or help spread awareness about the importance of clean water access. By sharing our message on social media, organizing community events, or starting a fundraising campaign, you can make a significant impact and help bring clean water to those in need.
