FAQ

After being vetted by our partner teams in Sindh, we hire contractors that construct the wells. WWP and our on-ground team presides over the contractors during the entire building process, to ensure integrity and transparency.

Yes. After a well is first built, we periodically conduct checks to ensure the water is still pure every few months on rotation. In addition to our own inspections, it is critical for WWP to ensure community members are trained on how to maintain the wells and handle minute challenges that may arise. These local community members also have access to WWP’s team, so that they can call if there is some problem that develops with their water systems.

In Sindh, we build our wells in the villages around Mirpur and Tharparkar. We primarily build in these areas because we have already conducted an intensive needs-based assessment and our partner teams are situated in these areas. This ensures that we are working with the local community members to provide relief.

As soon as the well is built, we send pictures and video  of the entire process including the initial drilling into the ground to the construction of the well to families drinking from the well.

Yes. After talking with scholars, the money donated to WWP for the intention of providing drinking water for families from low socioeconomic backgrounds fulfills the conditions of Zakat.
