Under the Pyaar Paani Project for Skardu, Dawood Global Foundation has successfully initiated deep solar-powered water wells in water-scarce communities of Skardu. Each well, reaching depths of 130–160 feet, is providing clean and sustainable drinking water to approximately 200 families per site. The project not only restores access to safe water but also restores dignity and ease to the lives of women and children who previously walked miles to fetch water. Every well is tested, solar-powered, and locally maintained to ensure long-term functionality.
Through the heartfelt support of our donors, this project has touched the lives of over 2,200 families, with each well carrying a plaque in the donor’s name. Local leaders have been trained in well maintenance, and every site is inaugurated with a ceremony honoring this shared act of compassion.
Call to Action:
We humbly invite our generous donors to continue their support in bringing more Pyaar aur Paani to Skardu. Your love is changing lives — one drop at a time. Let's build more wells, uplift more communities, and spread more kindness. Donate now and be part of this life-giving legacy.
