With your kind support, Customs Health care Society will provide clean drinking water to the drought-hit villages of Thar in Pakistan. Tharparker is part of Pakistan which is often hit by drought due to no rain over the years. Shortage of water is the main concern in Thar. In the wake of this, CHCS has embarked upon to dig 100 wells of clean drinking water in 100 different Goths (villages) of Thar in order to provide clean drinking water to almost 45000 humans as well as Animals on daily basis.
The Tharparkar district, spread over 22,000 square kilometres, is a chronically poor area with an estimated population of 1.2 million. Of these, 95 % live in around 2,000 villages. Water shortage is a major problem of the area. In Tharparkar, dug-wells have been found to be the only sustainable source of groundwater. During a normal day, villagers spend around four to six hours on average to fetch four to five pots (50 to 60 litres) of water from dug-wells, situated far and wide.
