Water is such a precious resource that not a single living creature can survive without it. The most obvious benefit of access to safe water is reduction in disease. In some areas of the world poor people have access to water but which is unfit for human consumption or have to travel for miles on foot to gain access to clean water.
AIMYM continues with this popular project around the world, the installation of water wells / hand pumps in their locality ensures that the women from the villages in poor and barren areas do not have to walk miles to obtain safe clean drinking water.
Your donations will enable All India Muslim Youth Majlis to construct and install hand pumps to abstract clean drinking water in our working place in India, your valuable donations will go towards sanitation schemes also.
On completion of this Sadaqa Jariah project AIMYM will provide you with feedback showing the handpump, nameplate (of a loved one) and its location.
Despite significant economic progress in the past decade, India is home to about 25 percent of the world's hungry poor. Although the country grows enough food for its people, pockets of hunger remain.
According to government figures, around 43 per cent of children under the age of five years are malnourished and more than half of all pregnancy women aged between 15 and 49 years suffer from anaemia.
Stark inter-state disparities exist with some states better off on all social indicators than the others. The states that suffer from hunger and malnutrition the most include Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Orissa, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh.
For the hungry, every day is about finding enough food to survive: poor farmers cannot afford to risk experimenting with new agricultural methods, when they can barely subsist on a small patch of land. The unemployed don't have a chance to learn new skills if they spend all day scraping a living on the black market. Poverty-stricken communities hit by floods or droughts are too busy looking for food to rebuild infrastructure vital for redevelopment.
Providing food in exchange for work makes it possible for the poor and hungry to devote time and energy to taking the first steps out of the hunger trap. This is the goal of AIMYM food-for-assets projects.
Community members are given food in exchange for work on vital new infrastructure or for time spent learning new skills that will increase the food security of households or communities.
