The Project aims to provide complete pipelined handpumps to the community to access clean drinking water for 700+ people in rural Sindh Pakistan.
The Society for Minors' Protection and Development (SMPD) has been actively engaged with 10 rural communities focusing on different thematic areas in Sindh, Pakistan. Within these communities, the people's basic needs "clean drinking water access" have been identified and required assistance to meet their basic needs. Due to limited resources of income and poverty, these people are away from the sources of clean drinking water. They cannot afford the installation cost of a hand pump.
The project aims to install handpumps in rural areas. Installing pipelined hand pumps in the villages will benefit poor families by providing clean drinking water and reducing the prevalence of waterborne diseases.
The project will give access to clean drinking water to the community who have been suffering from waterborne diseases. They are likely to improve their social, financial, and physical health through drinking clean water. Women of the houses are likely to spend more time with their children and these handpumps will reduce their efforts for fetching water away from their home in the extreme heat of Sindh in summer.
