Water is vital for all known forms of life. On average 60% of human body is water. Although water is crucial for human life, if it is contaminated it can cause serious diseases, often leading to death. Throughout the world, 80% of sicknesses are due to an inadequate water supply.
The current water situation in Pakistan is very alarming. Industrialization, urbanization, and rapid population growth have placed a huge stress on water resources throughout Pakistan, making it difficult for many to gain a clean source of water. As per one USAID report, an estimated 250,000 child deaths occur each year in Pakistan due to water-borne diseases. A study conducted by UNICEF found that 20-40% of hospital beds in Pakistan are occupied by patients suffering from water-related diseases such as typhoid, cholera, dysentery and hepatitis, which are also responsible for one third of all deaths.
In order to combat these diseases, we have initiated a clean drinking water project in Pakistan with the help of God-fearing people. Project is being implemented by GB Enablers. Our target is provide clean drinking water to every village throughout the country. Not only would this lower the decrease the cases of water-borne diseases, this would also decrease the load on health services and overall create a healthier Pakistan.
