Al-Mustafa Welfare Trust® - Water

The need

People around the world suffer on a daily basis because they don’t have access to safe drinking water and sanitation.

2.75 million People die as a result of water related diseases every year;

1.1 billion People in the world – roughly one eighth of its total population – do not have access to clean, safe water;

2.5 billion People do not have access to adequate sanitation almost two-fifths of the world’s population;

5 children die around every 60 seconds as a result of water-borne diseases;

80% of diseases in the developing world are due to unsafe water and poor sanitation;

Over 40 billion working hours are spent carrying water each year in Africa.

We often take the availability of safe drinking water for granted yet for millions of people this one issue is the most challenging part of their daily lives; a challenge which is often left unfulfilled as people die each day as a result of drinking contaminated water or nothing at all.

Al Mustafa Trust views this issue as a matter of urgency a simple contribution can allow us to provide whole communities with a range of solutions to fulfil their water needs.

80% of the world is covered in water and yet millions around the world suffer from water shortages, and lack access to safe water, leading to disease, death, crop failure and famine.

More than a billion people in rural and urban areas lack access to the most basic water and sanitation services.

60% of the world's population are without access to decent sanitation;

25,000 children die every day from diseases related to unsafe water;

80% of diseases in the developing world are due to unsafe water and poor sanitation.

Al-Mustafa Welfare Trust's Water and Sanitation Waqf offers communities both the practical and educational means to overcome problems associated with the lack of clean water and sanitation facilities.
