Build A Water Well

The location of the water well is determined and finalised by the planning team, who look at several factors like weather, security, accessibility, cost etc, before allocating a water well. If you really want us to build a water well to your selected location, then please contact us. We can discuss and see if we can accommodate your request.

For progress updates, please email us from time to time so that we can update you. This is because we don’t have an automated system in place to send updates at the moment.

After making the donation, you will get a receipt of donation. You will also get certificate of donation, pictures of the water well with plaque name and completion report after the water well is completed.

Yes, we can send you the donation certificate on request before the water well is built. If you want it, then please email us after making the donation.

Shallow:        5-7 months

Semi-Deep:   6-9 months

Deep:             6-12 months

Community:   8-12 months

Bore Hole:     12-18 months

Every water well has a local contact person who can raise any issue that is related to the donated water well. If an issue is raised then we look into it and service and maintain it if needed.

By default, all the completion  documents which includes, certificate, report, pictures and video are sent via email, which is the quickest and the safest way. If you want the documents to be sent via post then please email us with your request.

You can put anyone’s name. For eg. If you want to gift your parents by building a water well in their name, then you can put your parent’s name.

Enter the name of the person for whom the water well is being built. 

Or enter whatever you want people to see when they are using the water well.

The plaque is attached to the water well. You will be able to see this in the picture that we send to you.

There are no limits to the names or words you can enter for the certificate and plaque.

But, more words will mean the text will be smaller. 

If we think that the amount of word is too much then we will contact you.

It is permissible for you to spend your Zakat on building a water well. This is because those who do not have access to clean drinking water and sanitation facilities are most definitely in need, and needy people are – as per Allah’s (SWT) guidance – acceptable recipients of Zakat.
