Thank you for your continued support — may Allah accept it. Contribute to Solar Pump #18 When you're searching for a meaningful way to honour someone special, most gifts fall short. Flowers wilt. Cards get stored away. Material presents lose their significance over time. But what if you could give something that transforms lives daily for decades — a gift that keeps giving long after the moment has passed? Donating a water pump in someone's name creates exactly that kind of lasting impact. It's more than a memorial tribute or honour donation; it's a legacy written in every drop of clean water that quenches thirst, prevents disease, and brings hope to communities in desperate need. ## What Does It Mean to Donate a Water Pump in Someone's Name? A water pump donation is a charitable contribution that funds the installation of a hand-pump or solar-powered well in a water-scarce community — specifically in rural Pakistan and Kenya where HNCO operates. The unique aspect? Your donation includes a personalised memorial plaque bearing the name of someone you wish to honour, whether they're living or deceased. Here's what makes this different from standard charitable giving: the physical pump structure displays a permanent metal plaque with your chosen dedication message. Every person who uses that pump sees the name engraved there. For Islamic donors, this creates continuous Sadaqah Jariyah (ongoing charity) where rewards accumulate with each use — every drink, every ablution, every meal cooked with that water. Memorial gifts carry deeper meaning than typical donations. They're not just transactions; they're expressions of love, remembrance, and values that outlive us. ## The Profound Impact: Why Water Access Changes Everything Before diving into the 'how,' let's understand the 'why.' The global water crisis affects 696 million people who still lack access to clean water sources. In rural Pakistan and Kenya, communities walk 3-6 hours daily just to collect water — and often that water is contaminated. When you donate a water pump, here's what actually changes: - **Health transformation ** — waterborne diseases kill thousands of children annually. Clean water access reduces diarrheal diseases by up to 50% (WHO). Families spend less on medical bills and more on education and nutrition. - **Time liberation ** — women and girls typically bear the water-collection burden. A nearby well returns 3-6 hours daily to their lives — time they can use for school, work, or family. - **Economic empowerment ** — with reliable water, families can grow vegetables, maintain livestock, and start small businesses. Communities become self-sufficient rather than surviving day-to-day. - **Educational opportunity ** — children, especially girls, attend school consistently when they're not walking for water. Literacy rates climb. Futures brighten. A single hand-pump well serves 50–100 people daily. Pump lifespan: 25–30 years; typical active reward period: 10–15 years. That's hundreds of thousands of uses across the well's life — each one a direct impact on someone's day. ## Perfect Occasions for Memorial Water Pump Donations Unlike generic gifts, water pump dedications suit deeply meaningful occasions: ![When to dedicate a water pump — In Memory, Milestone Birthday, Wedding Gift, New Baby, Anniversary, Retirement](/__l5e/assets-v1/9f23b17b-6319-4a77-aabb-31419782cd50/water-tribute-occasions.png) ### Memorial Tributes for Deceased Loved Ones The most common use is honouring parents, grandparents, spouses, or other deceased relatives. In Islamic tradition, this is powerful Sadaqah Jariyah — continuous charity that benefits the deceased in the afterlife. Every person who drinks earns them ongoing rewards, even years after they've passed. > “When a person dies, all their deeds end except three: ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for them. — Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, Sahih Muslim 1631 ” > “When my father passed, we wanted to honour his memory with something more meaningful than a one-time donation. We donated a water pump in his name through HNCO. The progress videos and photos helped our entire family feel connected to his legacy. Every time someone drinks from that well, we know he's earning reward. — Fatima K., Manchester ” ### Chehlum (40th Day Memorial / Chaliswan / Soyem) For Pakistani, North Indian and Shia families in the UK, Chehlum — also written chehlam, chaliswan, or the 40th-day memorial — is one of the most significant mourning observances after a death. Families gather 40 days after the passing for du'a, Qur'an recitation, a majlis, and a shared meal in the deceased's name. Dedicating a water pump in the deceased's name for their Chehlum turns the 40th-day gathering into a permanent act of Sadaqah Jariyah. Many UK families now order the pump shortly after the burial so the progress videos and completed plaque photos are ready to share at the Chehlum majlis — every relative present sees the legacy taking shape, and the reward continues long after the gathering ends. - Soyem (3rd day) — initial dedication and announcement of the planned water pump - Chehlum (40th day) — unveil the plaque inscription and play progress videos at the majlis - Barsi (annual death anniversary) — share completion videos and ongoing impact updates each year ### Milestone Birthday Celebrations Forget another necktie or kitchen gadget. For 40th, 50th, 60th, or 70th birthdays, a water pump donation becomes a gift that reflects the honoree's values while transforming lives. It says: 'Your life has made a difference, and now we're extending that impact in your name.' ### Wedding Gifts That Truly Matter Start married life with blessings. Dedicate a well in the couple's name as a wedding gift that keeps giving throughout their marriage. It's infinitely more meaningful than another toaster. ### Baby Births and Naming Ceremonies Welcome a newborn with Sadaqah Jariyah. Begin their life with blessings that will benefit others for decades. Many Muslim families specifically donate [water pumps during Ramadan](/water/water-pump-ramadan) or on Laylat al-Qadr to maximise rewards. ### Gratitude for Recovery Thank Allah for recovery from illness or hardship by giving clean water. Express gratitude with a water pump that saves lives — a fitting response to having your own life preserved. ### Anniversaries and Retirements Mark years together or celebrate a career's completion with lasting impact. A 25th anniversary or retirement dedication honours the past while investing in others' futures. ## What's Included: The Complete Water Pump Donation Package When you donate a water pump through HNCO, a UK non-profit organisation, you're not just sending money into a void.

Feature HNCO Other UK Organisations Progress videos Yes (2–3 clips) Rarely provided Completion video Yes Rarely provided Number of photos 20–30 high-quality images 3–5 generic photos Water-quality testing Lab-verified certificate Often not mentioned Plaque character limit 80 characters 25–60 characters Hand-pump price £150 £200–£280 Build timeline 2–3 weeks 8–12 weeks Transparency Village/district/province details Limited details Countries of operation Pakistan and Kenya Varies widely This transparency matters. As a charity, HNCO operates with the motto 'help where it's needed most,' ensuring you're not just donating blindly — you're investing in specific communities and receiving verifiable proof of impact. ## The Step-by-Step Process: From Donation to Completion **Step 1: Choose Your Donation Level. ** Select between £150 hand-pump (small village) or £1,800 solar well (larger community, school, or mosque). **Step 2: Create Your Plaque Inscription. ** During checkout, enter your personalised message (up to 80 characters). Review carefully — changes after production may not be possible. The organisation confirms your message within 24-48 hours. **Step 3: Complete Your Donation. ** Pay online, by phone, or bank transfer. You'll receive instant email confirmation with your project reference number. **Step 4: Site Selection and Construction (Week 1). ** HNCO's field teams in Pakistan or Kenya identify villages with urgent water needs, test the water table, and begin drilling. This ensures your donation reaches communities in greatest need. **Step 5: Installation and Plaque Mounting (Weeks 2-3). ** The hand-pump is installed, tested thoroughly, and your personalised plaque is permanently mounted. Progress videos are filmed throughout the process so you can watch your gift come to life. **Step 6: Documentation Delivered. ** Within 2-3 weeks of completion, you receive your full documentation package via email: progress videos, completion video, 20-30 photos, water-quality certificate, location details, and digital donor certificate. ## Group Donations: Collective Tribute Gifts Many families, friend groups, or workplaces pool contributions for greater impact. This works beautifully for memorial gifts where multiple people want to honour someone collectively. ### How Group Donations Work - **Coordinate contributions **: collect £150 (or £1,800 for solar) from multiple people - **One person submits **: primary contact completes the donation and provides group plaque inscription - **Everyone receives updates **: share progress videos and photos with all contributors - **Group recognition **: plaque honours the collective (e.g. 'From the Johnson Family' or 'Birmingham Muslim Community Ramadan campaign') ### Popular Group Scenarios - **Family Memorial ** — siblings pool £150 to honour deceased parents. Plaque: 'In memory of Ammi and Abbu from your loving children' - **Workplace Collection ** — office colleagues contribute £15 each (10 people = £150) in memory of a coworker - **Mosque Community ** — congregation collects donations during Ramadan and pools for a solar well (£1,800) - **University Islamic Society ** — students fundraise £150 for charity week See the dedicated [group water pump donation page](/water/group-water-donation-uk) for collection templates and family/workplace coordination tips, or contact HNCO at info@hnco.org.uk or 01282 501998 to coordinate group donations. ## The Islamic Perspective: Sadaqah Jariyah and Water's Special Status For Muslim donors, water pump donations hold profound spiritual significance beyond the humanitarian impact. ### Sadaqah Jariyah (Ongoing Charity) Unlike one-time sadaqah that earns reward once, Sadaqah Jariyah continues generating rewards as long as the benefit persists. A water well with a 25–30 year pump lifespan — and a typical 10–15 year active reward period for hand pumps — creates an unending stream of blessings: - Every drink someone takes - Every ablution (wudu) someone performs - Every meal cooked with that water - Every animal that drinks - Every crop watered The rewards multiply exponentially. Even using the more conservative 10-year active reward window, if 50 people use the well 5 times daily, that's 250 uses per day × 365 days × 10 years = over 900,000 instances of reward. > “The best charity is giving water to drink. — Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, Ahmad and An-Nasa'i ” ### Water in Islamic Texts > “And We made from water every living thing. Then will they not believe? — Quran 21:30 ” This verse reminds us that water isn't merely a resource — it's the foundation of all life. When you provide clean water, you're honouring this divine gift by sharing it with those in need. For deceased loved ones, every person who benefits from the water well earns them ongoing reward in the afterlife. This makes water pump donations one of the most powerful ways to honour deceased parents or relatives according to Islamic teachings. [Explore other Sadaqah Jariyah water projects](/projects/digging-fresh-water-wells/how-much-to-build-a-well). ## Sharing Your Water Pump Dedication with Family and Friends One of the most touching aspects of memorial water pump donations is sharing the journey with loved ones. - **Family gatherings ** — play progress videos at memorial services, birthday celebrations, or anniversary parties - **Social media posts ** — share completion photos on Facebook, Instagram, or X honouring the dedicatee - **WhatsApp family groups ** — send progress videos showing the ongoing legacy to extended family - **Printed photo albums ** — create keepsake memory books with the 20-30 photos for permanent remembrance - **Thank-you cards ** — for weddings or group gifts, send cards to guests or contributors showing the completed pump > “My mother's 70th birthday was coming, and I wanted to give her something meaningful. I donated a water pump in her name through HNCO. When I showed her the progress videos at her birthday party, she cried tears of joy. Three guests donated their own wells that same week. — Ahmed T., Birmingham ” ## Frequently Asked Questions ### How much does it cost to donate a water pump in someone's name? A hand-pump water well costs **£150 ** and includes everything: personalised plaque (up to 80 characters), progress videos, 20-30 photos, completion video, water-quality testing, and full documentation. This is £50–£130 cheaper than other UK Islamic organisations. For larger communities, solar-powered wells cost £1,800. ### Can I dedicate a water pump in memory of a deceased loved one? Absolutely. Memorial water pump donations are the most common use case. The personalised plaque can include their name, dates, Quranic verse, or memorial message. Every person who drinks from the well earns ongoing Sadaqah Jariyah reward for your loved one, even after their passing — making this one of the most meaningful memorial gifts in Islamic tradition. ### What information will be on the personalised plaque? Your durable metal plaque (approximately 20cm × 15cm / 8" × 6") can include up to 80 characters: the honoree's name, dedication message, memorial dates, Quranic verse, or family name. The plaque is laser-engraved and permanently mounted on the pump structure, lasting 20+ years. You can use English, Arabic, Urdu, or combinations. ### How long does a water pump last? Hand-pump water wells have a pump lifespan of **25–30 years **, with a typical active reward period of **10–15 years ** before major refurbishment is needed. During this time, they serve 50–100 people daily — hundreds of thousands of uses, each one ongoing Sadaqah Jariyah for the person honoured. Solar wells share the same 25–30 year lifespan with a typical 15–20 year active reward period. ### Will I receive photos and location details? Yes. You'll receive progress videos during construction, **20-30 high-quality photos ** of the completed pump, plaque, and community (not 3-5 like other organisations), a completion video showing first use, village/district/province location, water-quality testing certificate, and a digital donor certificate. All documentation arrives within 2-3 weeks of completion. ### Where does HNCO install water pumps? HNCO is a UK non-profit organisation that installs water pumps specifically in **Pakistan and Kenya **, focusing on the most remote and underserved communities. Their field teams identify villages with urgent water needs and ensure your donation reaches those who need it most. As a non-profit with the motto 'help where it's needed most,' they allocate resources based purely on need, not race, religion, or class. ### Why doesn't HNCO provide GPS coordinates for water wells? Many remote villages in Pakistan and Kenya where HNCO works lack the road access, mobile coverage, and GPS infrastructure needed for reliable coordinate tracking. Instead, HNCO provides verifiable, transparent evidence: village name, district, province/region, 20-30 photos, progress videos, completion videos, and lab-verified water-quality testing. Progress videos offer superior proof — you actually see the drilling, installation, community celebration, and your plaque being mounted, rather than coordinates that could be copied from any map. ### Can I donate a water pump as a group gift? Yes. Many families, friend groups, workplaces, or communities pool donations for a £150 water pump or £1,800 solar well. The plaque can honour multiple people or the group collectively. One person coordinates the donation, and all contributors receive progress videos and photos to share. Contact info@hnco.org.uk to coordinate. ### What makes HNCO's water pump donations different from other organisations? HNCO provides **progress videos ** showing your water pump being built — something almost no other UK Muslim organisation offers. As a non-profit, they provide 20-30 photos (vs 3-5 from competitors), lab-verified water-quality testing, and transparent village location details. Their £150 price is among the most affordable in the UK (others charge £200-£280) with significantly more documentation and transparency. The 80-character plaque limit is also more generous than most organisations (25-60 characters). ## Solar-Powered Wells: Maximum Impact for Larger Communities For those wanting greater impact or honouring someone with a more substantial memorial gift, solar-powered wells serve 200-300 people daily — five times more than hand-pumps. ### What's Included with £1,800 Solar Wells - Submersible pump powered by solar panels - 10,000-litre daily capacity (5× more than a hand-pump) - Elevated storage tank for gravity-fed distribution - Multiple water taps for easy community access - Personalised plaque (80 characters) - Progress videos and 30+ photos - Water-quality testing - 25–30 year pump lifespan (15–20 year active reward period) with minimal maintenance Ideal for large families pooling contributions, workplace collections, mosque community Ramadan campaigns, or milestone celebrations where you want maximum impact — like 50th wedding anniversaries or 70th birthdays. [Learn more about solar-powered water wells](/projects/digging-fresh-water-wells/solar-powered-pump). ## The Environmental Footprint: Why Solar Pumps Are Also a Climate Gift Donating a solar-powered well honours someone humanitarianly and environmentally. In off-grid rural Pakistan and Kenya, the realistic alternative to a solar pump is usually a diesel-powered pump or hours of household fuel use for boiling and hauling unsafe water — both of which carry a significant carbon cost. - **Zero operational emissions ** — solar pumps produce no CO₂, no diesel fumes, and no noise pollution once installed. - **~1,500 kg of CO₂ avoided per year ** for a typical diesel pump replaced by a solar pump, based on published irrigation studies. - **Hundreds of litres of diesel avoided annually ** per pump, removing both the fuel cost and the supply-chain emissions of trucking diesel into remote villages. - **Reduced biomass demand ** — when families no longer need to boil contaminated water for safety, household firewood and charcoal use drops, easing local deforestation pressure. - **25–30 year design life ** with no fuel inputs means the carbon payback of the solar panels is recovered within the first few years, leaving decades of net-climate-positive operation. For donors dedicating a well in someone's name, this means the plaque commemorates a gift that is doubly enduring: ongoing Sadaqah Jariyah for the person honoured, and a measurable contribution to climate resilience in the community they now serve. ## About HNCO: A UK Non-Profit Preserving a Legacy The Hajjah Naziha Charitable Organisation (HNCO) is a UK non-profit organisation dedicated to preserving the legacy of Shaykh Muhammad Nazim Adil. A self-proclaimed interfaith non-profit, HNCO operates with the motto: **'help where it's needed most.' ** For over forty years, founders Shaykh Hisham and Hajjah Naziha Kabbani have directed emergency disaster relief and humanitarian aid projects. HNCO is the natural evolution of their past work, now focusing on water access, emergency relief, orphan support, mosque construction, and community development in Pakistan and Kenya. - **Transparency **: detailed reports on [how donations are spent](/how-your-donations-are-spent) - **Interfaith approach **: allocation based on need, never on race, religion, creed, colour, or class - **Community-driven **: relies on local communities for fundraising and delivers aid back to communities globally and locally [Learn more about HNCO's mission and legacy](/about-hajjah-naziha-charitable). ## Take Action: Honour Someone Special with Lasting Impact For just £150, you can honour a loved one, celebrate a milestone, or mark a special occasion while providing clean water to 50–100 people daily — with a 25–30 year pump lifespan and a typical 10–15 year active reward period of Sadaqah Jariyah. ### What Happens After You Donate - Immediate email confirmation with project reference number - Plaque inscription confirmation within 24-48 hours - Progress videos showing construction stages in Pakistan or Kenya - Completion video with community celebration - Full documentation package: 20-30 photos, water testing, location details, digital certificate - Ongoing Sadaqah Jariyah rewards across the pump's 25–30 year lifespan (10–15 year typical active reward period) > “We donated a water well in our grandmother's name after she passed. The progress videos were incredible — we could see the village kids, the drilling equipment, and then the final moment when her name was unveiled on the plaque. We played the videos at her 40-day memorial service, and everyone was moved to tears. Three more family members donated wells that week. — Zainab and Family, London ” Ready to create a lasting legacy? Contact HNCO at info@hnco.org.uk or 01282 501998.
