Title: Installation of a New Community Hand Pump in Village Niray Pull, Swabi – KPK

Summary

Alkhidmat Foundation has successfully installed a new Community Hand Pump in Village Niray Pull, Swabi (KPK), providing reliable access to clean drinking water for dozens of underserved families.

This project is part of Alkhidmat’s ongoing commitment to expanding safe water solutions in remote and water-scarce communities across Pakistan.

Story / Update

For years, the residents of Village Niray Pull faced significant challenges in accessing clean and safe drinking water. Women and children often walked long distances to fetch water from contaminated or unreliable sources, exposing them to health risks and consuming valuable time that could be spent on education, livelihood, or family care.

To address this urgent need, Alkhidmat Foundation installed a hand pump that now provides:

• Easy access to clean water

• Reduced risk of waterborne diseases

• Safe drinking water at the doorstep

• Improved hygiene and daily living conditions

Community members, particularly mothers and children, expressed deep relief and gratitude as the new pump has brought immediate convenience and improved health conditions to their lives.
