Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. All praises is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds - The Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful, Sovereign of the Day of Recompose. It is You we worship and You we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path - the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked (Your) anger or of those who are astray. Ameen.

Project Life Kenya: Community Well & Solar Powered Pump (3rd Project)

On the authority of Sa‘d ibn 'Ubadah (ra) who said, 'I asked, “O Messenger of Allah! Which charity is best?” He [saw] replied, “Providing water.”' (Ibn Majah)

The gift of water saves lives, which is a hugely rewardable action. Allah says in the Qur'an, ‘And whoever saves one [a life] - it is as if he had saved all of mankind'. (Qur'an, 5:32) Imagine this - every single time the clean water you sponsor saves someone's life, it is as if you have saved all of mankind!

We use water for everything, from washing dishes to cooking food to growing crops. Allah says in the Qur'an, ‘By means of water, we give life to everything'. (Qur'an, 21:30). Communities who don't have access to clean water face unimaginable hardships, with women and children walking for hours to collect even a little water, and families unable to support themselves due to lack of education and livelihood. Having access to safe water is a basic human right and fulfilling this right is an excellent Sadaqah.

For this particular project, we will be commissioning contractors to build the following;

A Community Well ( Dug minimally 30-50 meters deep )

Installed with proper Pipes & Water Filters

Solar Powered Pump

Why solar powered pump?
This location does not have access to electricity however it is always sunny during the day. With Solar technology, it will help to generate enough electricity to power a generator which in turns help to pump the water out.

How is this different with our Well projects in Cambodia?
Unlike in Cambodia, each well is built specifically for one household. In this case the Community Well is big enough to be shared with a whole village - 300 families.

Total cost of this project: SGD 18,500

If you wish to contribute to this project, you may wakf as follows:
i) $100 for 1 name
ii) $500 for 5 names
iii) $1,000 for 10 names

We will close this project once the full amount have been raised.

Alhamdulillah! We have managed to raise a total fund of SGD 13,900 as of 23 August 2021.
