Water is Life
Hand pumps, borings and supply schemes in water-stressed Balochistan and Sindh.
Fund: Restricted — Water
Rural communities across Balochistan and Sindh face chronic water scarcity; women and children walk long distances for unsafe water. Water is Life began in 2021 with pilot interventions in Bhag Nari. By January 2026 TMF had completed 260 water projects — small and large hand pumps, deep borings, public supply schemes, solar-powered bores and school water points — each designed for local geography and groundwater conditions. Historical projects are listed as pre-platform records; new projects post to the ledger with evidence.
