Give Water Gift
Founded in 2015 by Capt. Sheikh Javed and honorary member Junaid Jamshed, the Human Necessity Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to delivering clean drinking water to communities with no access to safe water, electricity, or infrastructure. We install solar-powered water plants equipped with full filtration and distribution systems, making the process of collecting safe drinking water as simple and dignified as turning on a tap.
The Human Necessity Foundation’s mission is to provide clean drinking water through Solar Water Plants to people in need.
We see a world where the most basic requirement for life (drinking water) will be available to everyone.
Compassion. Innovation. Transparency. Sustainability. Every drop we provide reflects our belief in dignity through access to life’s necessities.
