How do we choose our Water Well Location?
Throughout Afghanistan Water is needed. With over 70% of the population lacking access to clean water, the demand is high.
To determine our next Water Well location, we consider the following:
– How many families will it serve?
– Will it be near a school or educational institute?
– Are kids spending over an hour a day having to get water from far away sources?
– Is the current water supply an unclean/health risk?
What determines the cost of the Water Well?
One of our biggest aims is to provide Water throughout Afghanistan, and for this reason we do not charge any admin fees, below are the different things that determine the cost of the Water Well. Costs are determined prior to building.
The costs of the Water Wells always vary from location to location, due to the following:
Depth: How deep the well will be dug until a Water source is found, this is the largest cost of the Water Well, digging until a Water source is found, and this can be 20, 40, 60 or even 100 metres in some locations.
Solar: Once a Water Well is over 40 metres, it can no longer have a hand pump, and will then require a solar powered electric pump, that the locals can use to access the Water.
Container: The Water Container with taps and pipes ensures a continuous water flow, we highly recommend this for Solar Powered Water Wells
Location: Some locations have Water available quite easily, however many locations especially near the mountainous terrains requires deeper digging and heavier machines to break through the rocks.
