“The best charity is to provide water.”
My friends, by the grace of God, I have been able to provide a deep-water pump for a whole village. More than 100 people collect water from this deep tubewell.
Due to its proximity to Dhaka City, it is almost impossible for them to draw water from a normal hand pressure tap. Water can only be extracted by deep tube-wells in only some specific areas in this region.
Sahanaj Begum said, “I moved to this area after getting married 30 years ago. For the past three decades, I have been living in this region and experiencing ongoing water-related challenges. Initially, we relied on pond water, but unfortunately the increasing heat has caused the pond to dry up in summer seasons. Even we don’t have enough water for our basic needs like food and drinking in our area.
Through a week of hard work, time and effort I was able to install this Deep Water Pump with the help of the villagers. It cost around 70,000 taka to install the deep water pump.
My friends, the villagers have sent their heartfelt prayers, gratitude and best wishes for all of you who have contributed for the water pump and tubewell.
They said, this tubewell was the biggest gift of their life in this hot summer.
More than 100 people (families) collect water everyday. I am also planning to make a small bathroom besides the deep tubewell, so that the women who come to collect water can take a shower as well.
Please keep me in your prayers, so that I can continue my journey of improving the lives of those in need.
Love and Light
