Sanitation and hygiene are essential to human dignity and health, yet over 785 million individuals worldwide lack access to clean drinking water. This staggering figure represents countless people facing daily challenges in securing the most basic necessity for survival. Moreover, approximately 40% of the global population does not have access to soap or hand washing facilities. This lack of basic sanitation leads to widespread illness, with more than 800 children dying each day from preventable diseases. In regions such as Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Somalia, and Yemen, people endure extreme poverty, and the absence of basic facilities forces them to trek miles daily for water. This journey consumes time that adults could use for work, generating income. And for children, it means missing crucial days of education.
At United Muslims, we believe that providing clean water is a form of charity that transforms lives globally. Our water charity initiatives are alleviating thirst and creating sustainable access to clean water for communities across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Our projects range from installing simple water pumps to constructing sophisticated water purification plants. We are dedicated to ensuring that families worldwide can enjoy fresh, clean water, free from the threat of waterborne diseases. Currently, our active projects are spread across several countries, including Pakistan, Bangladesh, Yemen, and Kenya. Our dedicated teams are on the ground, working tirelessly to drill wells equipped with user-friendly water pumps, establish water purification plants to provide rural communities with clean water, and distribute barrels of fresh water to families in dire need.
Our efforts go beyond installing wells, hand pumps, tankers, and boreholes; we also focus on educating communities about the importance of clean water and sanitation. The transformation we witness in these communities is profound: with improved hygiene and access to drinking water, disease rates fall, allowing individuals to lead productive lives and support their families. By committing to a small monthly donation of £10 to our clean water appeals, you can support our mission to provide clean, safe water to communities in need. Your generosity can transform the lives of thousands, promoting health, happiness, and hydration. Join us at United Muslims in our commitment to ensure that everyone, regardless of where they are born, has access to the life-giving resource of clean water.

Charitable efforts focused on providing clean water to those in need are profoundly impactful, as water is fundamental to life itself. Yet, an alarming reality faces our global community: nearly 2 billion individuals lack access to clean, safe drinking water. This scarcity subjects countless individuals to the dangers of dehydration, disease, and, in severe cases, death.
At United Muslims, our mission transcends providing temporary relief; we aim to furnish sustainable solutions that ensure safe, clean water for life. Through your donations, you empower us to combat the water crisis on multiple fronts, offering a beacon of hope to those deprived of this essential resource.
Our initiatives extend across more than 18 countries, where we implement a variety of water solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of each community. From the installation of hand pumps and deep tube wells to the establishment of community solar pumps, we are dedicated to creating reliable water sources. Our approach includes the integral participation of local communities, from the actual installation process by knowledgeable locals to ongoing management and maintenance overseen by community-formed committees. This collaborative effort ensures the longevity and hygiene of water facilities, directly combating the spread of diseases.
The story of Fatima from a remote village in Bangladesh stands as a testament to the transformative power of your contributions. Before the installation of a local water well supported by United Muslims, Fatima and her children endured daily treks to distant water sources. Now, with safe water readily available, her children can pursue education and the family enjoys improved health and vitality.
Similarly, in a drought-stricken area of Somalia, our solar water pumping systems have revolutionised the community’s access to water, turning arid land into fertile ground for agriculture and sustaining life. Stories like these abound, with your support enabling life-saving changes.

Consider the profound difference a donation can make: just £10 a month aids in our water projects globally, while larger donations can fund entire water purification plants or solar water systems, providing thousands with access to clean water. Each donation, big or small, contributes to a collective effort that has already brought safer water to millions of people worldwide.
United Muslims’ commitment extends beyond traditional aid, with specialised water supply projects in areas ravaged by war and disasters.
