Sharjah Charity International (SCI) has launched a project to provide water to 1,000 families in rural and mountainous regions of Tajikistan, where access to safe drinking water remains scarce.

The initiative is part of SCI’s humanitarian efforts during the first 10 days of Dhul-Hijjah, the final month of the Islamic calendar.

Khaled Hassan Al Ali, Director of Projects and External Aid at SCI, emphasised the organisation’s focus on long-term, sustainable development. “Our goal is to implement projects that make a lasting impact,” he said.

“The water network we’re constructing in Tajikistan will be vital for these families, offering them stability and essential support. This project reflects the UAE’s commitment to aiding vulnerable communities and advancing global development. It is part of our ongoing mission to ensure that people in drought-affected areas have reliable access to clean water.”
