Zam Zam Water, in collaboration with Central Afghanistan Welfare Committee (CAWC), proudly presents The Afghan Community Project. CAWC is an NGO, as well as, a United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) partner within the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan since 1989. This project is divided into 3 phases, designed to provide water, shelter, and electricity for an entire area of land that is otherwise uninhabitable in Mazar E Sharif, Afghanistan.
According to the United Nations, there are over 680,000 IDP’s (internally displaced persons) in Afghanistan, 24,000 of them returning refugees. Many returnees have migrated to towns and cities, contributing to the country's rapid urbanization. Rising poverty and unemployment in urban centers prevent them from reintegrating into society. Scarce resources and limited basic infrastructure are linked to poor employment opportunities, which also affect the sustainable reintegration of Afghan returnees.
Help us by providing clean water as the initial step to breaking the cycle of poverty. Access to clean water gives a person the opportunity to live a healthy and productive life.
Phase 2: Provide the villagers with the necessary resources to help build homes and shelters for themselves. CAWC has access to deliver doors, windows, roofing, tools, generators, and other supplies necessary for these villagers to build their own community in which to live in.
Phase 3: Furthering our construction by building an irrigation system to provide potable water to each home. We will also be able to provide electricity to the homes through wind turbines, solar-powered energy, or multiple generators, contingent on the weather patterns and landscape of the area. Contingent on the amount we raise, we have the capability and resources to construct a Mosque, clinic, agricultural garden, playground, and/or school.
Zam Zam Water is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit organization focused on bringing water to those in need, one WELL at a time. The story of Zam Zam water dates back to the Prophet Abraham. Islamic tradition holds that while venturing out in the middle of the desert valley, Abraham was walking with his wife, Hajar, and their infant son, Ismael. Consequently, when Hajar and Ismael were left alone, she desperately searched for water in a dry, barren land, all the while she was running back and forth hopelessly praying for God's mercy. God answered her prayers and quenched her thirst by causing a spring to rise at the feet of Ismael. This Zam Zam well has been running continuously ever since.
Over 750 million Abraham's, Hajar's, and Ismael's continue to walk this earth aimlessly trying to access clean water. Our aim at Zam Zam Water is to act like the original Zam Zam well and bring water to those in need, one well at a time..
