Every stride you take in the MUSLIM SPORTS NETWORK 5k RUN will help transform lives by providing clean and safe drinking water to those in need. The funds raised will go towards installing hand pumps in Bangladesh and Pakistan, making a significant difference for countless families.
The Water Crisis
A Heartfelt Journey
In many regions of Bangladesh and Pakistan, the daily struggle for clean water is a harsh reality, especially for women. They walk miles under the scorching sun, carrying heavy loads of contaminated water. This backbreaking task not only affects their health but also steals their time, keeping them from education, employment, and caring for their families.
A hand pump changes everything. It brings clean water right to their doorstep, easing their burden, and drastically reducing waterborne diseases. Healthier women mean healthier families and communities.
How Your Participation Helps
By installing simple hand pumps close to homes, we can revolutionize lives. The hours previously spent walking for water can now be used to improve family income and wellbeing. Access to clean water reduces the risk of disease and contamination, leading to healthier lives and lower medical expenses. Each hand pump supports households providing essential water for drinking, cleaning, ablution and cooking.
Fundraising Goals
With a modest registration fee of £5, we encourage participants to aim for a fundraising target of £150. Your efforts will directly contribute to installing hand pumps in Bangladesh and Pakistan, bringing hope and health to those in need. For all those that go beyond the target and manage to raise £150 we will install a handpump in a loved ones name creating an opportunity for Sadaqah Jariyah (continuous charity).
