Gaza Water Well Appeal 2025: Bringing Clean Water to Thousands

In Gaza, water is being used as a weapon. With over 90% of water infrastructure destroyed, millions in Gaza have no safe drinking water. Together, we can help change that.

A Crisis That Can't Be Ignored

In Gaza, water is being used as a weapon. Over 90% of the region's water infrastructure has been destroyed, leaving millions without safe drinking water. Families are forced to rely on contaminated sources, if they have access to water at all. The crisis deepened in March 2025:

Timeline of Escalating Crisis

1
March 2: All aid deliveries stopped
2
March 9: Electricity was cut off
3
Desalination output: Dropped by 85% - from 17 million litres per day to just 2.5 million

This means hundreds of thousands are surviving on dangerously limited water, with devastating consequences.

What Happens Without Clean Water?

Without clean water, nothing else works. People can't cook or wash. Children can't bathe. Hospitals can't clean wounds or stop infections from spreading. When water stops, the consequences are immediate and deadly:

Immediate Consequences of Water Scarcity

Dehydration

Babies, children, and the elderly are first to suffer

Waterborne Diseases

Diarrhoea, hepatitis, and cholera spread rapidly

Skin Infections

Scabies and rashes become common in overcrowded camps

Loss of Dignity

No way to bathe, wash clothes, or clean wounds

For families, safe water isn't just about drinking, it's about cooking, washing, hygiene, and survival.

Our Response: Deep Water Wells in Gaza

Al-Ihsan Foundation is building deep water wells to reach safer underground sources. We work through trusted local partners who ensure each well is built, tested, and monitored before use. These wells are life-saving for:

Who Benefits from Each Well

Displaced families in South Gaza
Families without reliable water access
The elderly and sick, most at risk from dehydration

Project Details

$25K

Project Cost: $25,000 to construct and install

Each deep water well is built near displacement camps in Gaza.

Every location is carefully documented, and we share updates and progress through our social media platforms so donors can see exactly how their contributions are changing lives. This is not just about building a well; it's about giving a community a source of clean water they can depend on. In shaa Allah, each well will have a long and positive impact, improving health, restoring dignity, and offering a lasting form of Sadaqah Jariyah for those who support it.

How We Ensure Water Safety

After drilling, the water is tested for quality and safety. After filtration and final approval, these wells become a source of clean water for long-term benefit, in shaa Allah. Sometimes, the first flow from a new well may be cloudy or not drinkable right away. This is normal. The water needs time to clear and be tested, especially when drilling through multiple underground layers. Our local teams know this. They test and treat the water, and it is only used once it's safe. Even the sight of water beginning to flow brings joy and relief, especially to children who know it means clean water is coming.

Why This Project Matters

Imagine telling your child you have no water to give. In Gaza it's daily reality. A working well means relief, dignity, and survival. This is more than a project. It's a lifeline. And every donor becomes part of that lifeline. Read the latest update on our first completed well.

How You Can Help

Your donation will help cover:

What Your Donation Covers

Drilling and Excavation

Deep drilling to reach safe underground water sources

Pumps and Piping

Reliable pumps, piping, and fittings for water distribution

Filtration Systems

Advanced filtration systems for safe drinking water

A full sponsorship of $25,000 funds the entire well, in sha'Allah and can change thousands of lives. This is more than a project. It's a lifeline. Together, we can dig hope from the ground up.

Final Reflection: The Best Charity

"The best charity is giving water to drink."

- Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

Donate to help build a water well. The people of Gaza deserve a better life.

Together, we can dig hope from the ground up.

Every well is a lifeline for thousands of families in Gaza.
