1 in 3 people in Malawi do not have access to clean drinking water. The few boreholes they have are drying up. Based on international standards, six per cent of the population has access to a sanitation facility. Crisis Aid does not build water wells and move on. We have contracts in place to make sure the wells and pumps continue to function year on year. Please donate generously so we can provide water for the men, women and children of Malawi.

Why Should I Donate to the Water Well/Pump Project?
Access to clean and safe drinking water is a fundamental human right, yet millions around the world lack this basic necessity. Your donation to the Water Well/Pump project by Crisis Aid will directly contribute to constructing sustainable water sources in communities suffering from water scarcity. This not only improves health by reducing waterborne diseases but also supports local agriculture, education, and overall economic development by freeing up time that would otherwise be spent on fetching water from distant sources.
How Does My Donation Help?
Donating a water well/pump through Crisis Aid means you're directly supporting communities where clean water is scarce, by funding the drilling, installation, and maintenance of wells. Moreover, your contribution helps train communities in water management, ensuring sustainability. This gift not only provides essential access to clean water, reducing the risk of waterborne diseases, but also supports broader community benefits like agriculture and education, by saving the time that would otherwise be spent fetching water. It’s a way to make a lasting, tangible difference in the lives of those who need it most.
