1. SHALLOW ELECTRIC WATER WELLS
This type of well is currently only available in Cambodia. Here, an electric motor pump is installed at the well which helps tremendously with the pumping process. Its use can significantly reduce the time and effort needed to bring up enough water for each person – making it easier for women and children, who are usually assigned the task. Shallow water wells are dug at a depth of 9-12 meters and installed with a conventional electric motor pump.

2. DEEP ELECTRIC WATER WELLS
This type of well is currently only available in Cambodia. Here, an electric motor pump is installed at the well which helps tremendously with the pumping process. In some areas, our team will need to dig even deeper to access clean water for the community. The deep electric pumps can reach 15-30 meters in depth, and are more costly due to the extra intensive labour required.
The installation process typically takes 3 to 4 months from the time we receive your donation until you receive the feedback report. The timeline may vary depending on weather conditions and the availability of materials.
The longevity of a Electric Water Well depends on its maintenance. With proper care by our teams on the ground, a well can typically provide clean drinking water for over 10 years.
Absolutely! Providing water is one of the highest forms of charity and an excellent Sadaqah Jariyah. Each Electric Water Well we install includes a plaque where you can dedicate the well to someone special. You can list up to 5 names on the plaque.
Upon completion, you will receive a personalised e-certificate, which includes a picture of the well serving the local community and a detailed report on its impact.
