Abdulghafour Badr Al-Abdulghafour, Director of Resources at Al-Najah Charity Association, announced that the association will launch its new project next Friday, corresponding to the 30th of the current month. The project will benefit 150,000 people, including the poor, the needy, displaced persons, refugees, and residents of desert villages, alongside animals, birds, and agricultural initiatives held alongside the project.
Al-Abdulghafour explained that the project includes drilling wells in Africa and Yemen, distributing water tanks to our people in Palestine, and connecting water points to the homes of modest families in Egypt. He emphasized that these projects embody the message of Kuwaiti charitable work in reaching those in need and fulfilling their basic requirements.
He added that water is not merely a daily necessity, but the foundation of life, health, stability, and development, citing the divine verse: “And We made from water every living thing.” He noted that drilling a single well can transform the reality of an entire village by providing fresh water, reducing the hardship of obtaining it, supporting agriculture and livestock, and helping children attend school regularly instead of being occupied with daily water-fetching trips.
