Water for Somalis

The situation in war-torn Somalia is getting worse every day and its people—especially its children-—are dying in appalling numbers due to lack of food and water. The people of Somalia still need our help.

Zakat Foundation of America has just launched a development project for the people of Somalia and you can help. We are building wells to provide water to the people affected by the drought and the cost of building one well in the region is just $2,500. Your donation toward this Sadaqah Jariyah project will bring a long-term solution to the crisis.

  • Your $2,500 donation will build one well in the drought-stricken region.

  • Your $1,250 donation will build a well with 1 other donor.

  • Your $500 donation will build a well with 4 other donors.

  • Your $100 donation will build a well with 24 other donors.

Your donation will help provide the most basic human need of water to the people of Somalia. Be part of our well-building project and begin your year with a good deed that will last for many years to come.

The following images are examples of well building projects we have previously worked on.
