Long-term Clean Water Access
By May 2024, we've installed 19 water well systems, including four on islands and one on the mainland (Pitas). Pulau Banggi, Malaysia's largest island, alone needs around 100 more projects.
These projects significantly improve health and life quality in impoverished communities by reducing waterborne diseases. Mosques and schools benefit from reliable water, supporting daily activities and enhancing community resilience.
