Gravity Flow Clean Water for North Pakistan

Title: Gravity Flow Water Supply Scheme Completed in Village Chanjath, Azad Kashmir

Summary

Alkhidmat Foundation has successfully completed a Gravity Flow Water Supply Scheme in Village Chanjath, Tehsil Athmuqam, Azad Kashmir, providing sustainable access to clean drinking water for 33+ families.

This initiative is part of Alkhidmat’s nationwide effort to expand clean water accessibility in remote and underserved communities. Through various water projects, Alkhidmat continues to uplift vulnerable families and improve community health.

Story / Update

In the mountainous region of Athmuqam, accessing clean and safe drinking water has long been a challenge. Women and children often had to walk long distances on steep terrain to fetch water from unsafe sources. This not only affected their health but also their education and daily livelihood.

To address this persistent issue, Alkhidmat Foundation implemented a Gravity Flow Water Supply Scheme, using natural slopes to deliver water from an elevated spring directly to community households—without requiring electricity, fuel, or machinery.

The project included:

• Laying durable water pipelines

• Construction of a storage tank

• Community-level water distribution points

With clean water now available at their doorstep, families in Chanjath have experienced immediate relief. Parents no longer worry about waterborne diseases, and children—especially girls—can focus on school rather than water collection.

Community members expressed their deep gratitude for this life-changing project that will continue to benefit them for many years.

Beneficiaries

• Direct Impact: 33+ families in Village Chanjath

• Indirect Impact: Entire community benefits from improved health, hygiene, and time savings

Impact

• Ensured consistent access to clean and safe drinking water

• Reduced burden on women and children who previously walked long distances

• Lowered risk of waterborne diseases

• Strengthened community resilience with a sustainable, low-maintenance water solution

• Improved overall health, hygiene, and quality of life

Gratitude Note

We extend our heartfelt thanks to our GlobalGiving donors whose generosity made this project possible. Your support empowers us to deliver long-term, sustainable water solutions to marginalized communities across Pakistan. Together, we are bringing hope, dignity, and health to families who need it most. 

Title: Free Clean Water for Flood-Affected Families in Remote Pakistan

Summary

Alkhidmat Foundation is providing free clean drinking water to families living in remote, flood-affected areas of Pakistan. This initiative is helping protect vulnerable communities from waterborne diseases and ensuring safe access to one of life’s most basic needs.

Story / Update

The devastating floods across Pakistan washed away not only homes and livelihoods but also damaged water sources, leaving thousands of families without access to safe drinking water. In many villages, people were forced to rely on contaminated water, increasing the risk of diseases such as diarrhea, cholera, and typhoid.

To respond to this urgent need, Alkhidmat launched a Clean Water Initiative in remote flood-hit regions. Through water filtration plants, tankers, and mobile water distribution, we are delivering free, safe, and clean water to affected families daily.

For children, women, and elderly people living in makeshift shelters, this intervention is life-saving. Clean water has restored dignity and hope, allowing families to focus on rebuilding their lives rather than struggling for survival.

Beneficiaries

• Direct Impact: Thousands of families in flood-affected rural areas.

• Target Group: Displaced families, especially children and women, at high risk of waterborne illnesses.

Impact

• Immediate relief from drinking unsafe water.

• Reduction in waterborne diseases among affected families.

• Improved health, dignity, and resilience in disaster-hit communities.

Next Steps

Alkhidmat aims to expand clean water access by installing more filtration plants, running additional mobile water units, and ensuring long-term safe water solutions in rural and disaster-prone areas.

Gratitude Note

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to GlobalGiving donors and supporters worldwide. Your generosity is not just providing clean water—it is saving lives, protecting health, and giving hope to flood-affected families in Pakistan.
