Water Well Initiative
Clean water is life. Fund a well and give sadaqa, a gift that keeps giving every time someone drinks from it.
Why now
A gift whose reward continues
Water changes everything. Health, education, dignity, opportunity, all begin with a well that never runs dry.
Clean water, forever
One well can serve a community for decades. It's the definition of ongoing charity.
100% of your gift
Every dollar goes directly toward drilling, installation, and maintenance of the well.
Student-led, community-rooted
Organized by University of Michigan students in service of communities most in need.
The Meaning
"Whoever gives water to the thirsty…"
On the plains of Karbala, Imam Husayn (A) and his companions were denied water. In their memory, we bring water to those denied it today, a living tribute, one well at a time.
