Join Al-Qulub Trust and bring the gift of water to parched lives.
Despite living in a country with significant water resources, a concerning number of people in Pakistan still lack access to clean water & sanitation.
The absence of clean water sources and proper sanitation facilities places millions at risk of preventable diseases, trapping them in a cycle of poverty and poor health. Imagine the struggles of a mother who must embark on long journeys daily to fetch water, only to find it contaminated. Consider the plight of communities vulnerable to waterborne illnesses due to the absence of adequate sanitation infrastructure.
According to the World Health Organization, approximately one in three Pakistanis faces this pressing issue.
UNESCO report further sheds light on the widespread nature of water scarcity, affecting between two and three billion people who experience significant water shortages for at least one month every year. This scarcity poses severe risks to livelihoods, particularly through impacts on food security and access to electricity.
Looking ahead, the situation appears increasingly dire. The number of urban dwellers facing water scarcity is expected to more than double, rising from 930 million in 2016 to between 1.7 and 2.4 billion by 2050.
At Al-Qulub Trust, guided by the principles of our Islamic faith, we are committed to addressing these critical challenges specifically in Pakistan. Our mission is to ensure that every Pakistani has access to clean water and proper sanitation facilities, thereby improving the overall well-being and health of our fellow citizens.

Research reveals that access to clean water could save up to 16,000 children's lives every week globally. Additionally, UNESCO highlights that better sanitation in schools can drive an 11% rise in girls' attendance, empowering future generations.
In rural Uganda, the search for water is a daily burden, especially for women and girls, who bear this responsibility in 80% of households. A typical journey takes 44 minutes, only to reach water that’s often unsafe: 42% of “improved” sources test positive for E. coli. One in three Ugandans, about 14 million people, still lack reliable access to clean drinking water. The health consequences are severe: up to 54 children die each day from preventable diarrheal diseases, and poor water, sanitation, and hygiene contribute to more than 70% of illnesses treated in local clinics. Beyond health, water scarcity drains time, keeps girls out of school, and costs Uganda billions in lost productivity.
Your support brings clean water closer to home through constructing wells, an effective solution where deeper boreholes are not required. Each Al-Qulub Trust well project offers:
Optional name plaque: Honoring you or a loved one, turning every sip into a prayer of ongoing charity (ṣadaqah jāriyah).
A well saves women and girls up to five hours each week, time they can now use for school, farming, or small businesses. Schools with on-site water see higher attendance, especially among girls. Clean water dramatically reduces illness, restores dignity, and helps communities thrive. Your donation does more than provide water—it empowers futures, uplifts families, and earns lasting reward.
