Contaminated water & sanitation causes 80% of sickness & disease worldwide

The price paid by poor communities with no access to safe water is huge. Wasted income, lost time and ill-health all have a devastating impact on families. Children in particular suffer, with water- borne diseases being one of the biggest killers of children worldwide.
Tackling the shortages of clean water around the Ummah remains a big challenge. Providing water is a very good way of offering a Sadaqah Jariyah (continuous charity) as the donor can expect to reap Allah’s blessings for as long as the well supplies water.

Due to advances in technology, SPOT Project no longer build water well but has instead invested in progressive initiatives such as boreholes. A borehole is a solar powered mechanism which involves drilling deep into the ground to access clean water. The water is then powered up and a tap system is created. The advantages of a borehole make it more sustainable, easily maintained & accessible to all.

A Borehole consists of:

Solar/Electric Pump
Solar Panel
Water Tap
Large Water Tank and Stand
Personalised Plaque (with your name)

It is important for public health that available water – whether it is used for drinking, domestic use or food production – is safe. It has been proven that improved water supply and sanitation can boost countries economic growth and result in poverty reduction. Every person has the right to safe, continuous and physically accessible water for personal and domestic use.

The cost of installing a Borehole is £3500

Installing a borehole system consists of the following:

  • Solar/electric pump
  • Solar panel
  • 2x water taps
  • Large water tank & stand
  • Personalised plaque with your name (or memory of loved one)
  • Information pack of where the borehole is located with images
  • Video footage of borehole and beneficiaries
  • Certificate

If you would like to donate towards a borehole, fill out the form below and we will be in touch.

    Email us the name of the person you would like on the plaque on [email protected] once you have made payment for a Borehole.   

    “This is a very close estimation of the costs of a Borehole. Costs vary due to material prices and construction costs. Any surplus funds left after we build your borehole will go into the ‘Borehole Maintenance Fund’. Alhamdulillah, this means that any surplus funds from your Borehole will maintain all of the Boreholes we have built and will build Inshallah.” It will take approximately 3 months for the borehole to be built.

    Gift Aid

    Gift Aid It!Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows SPOT Project to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to SPOT Project we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

    By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like SPOT Project to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that SPOT Project will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

    What is Gift Aid?

    Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When SPOT Project receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

    All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

    The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.
