However, these same problems persist in the very communities where families do not have enough income to allow them to comfortably buy water. It is a vicious cycle, and families often end up spending money on water instead of on food, healthcare or education, when water should be easily available to everybody for free.
In particularly dry climates where summers are long and difficult and drought has become more common due to climate change, Muslim Charity is building solar water wells. Small solar water wells serve a small community of approximately ten households, and provides between 750 and 1000 litres of water each day. These small water wells use the power of sunlight to power a motor which extracts water from deep beneath the grounds surface.
