Water does not come to a village only through pipelines. Sometimes, it has to be brought back to life from the land itself.
Naam Foundation has rejuvenated 2,850 water bodies till date, helping strengthen water availability for drinking, agriculture, and cattle across Indian villages.
This work is not just about desilting or widening water bodies. It is about restoring local water systems so that farmers, families, animals, and entire village economies can survive with more security.
When a water body is revived, the impact reaches much beyond water. It supports crops, livestock, groundwater recharge, and the dignity of rural life.
Your donation helps this work continue where it is needed the most.

Planting a tree is only the first act. Keeping it alive is the real work. Naam Foundation has planted 3,50,000 trees, but our work was never limited to digging pits and counting saplings.
In our projects, tree species were selected based on the local ecosystem, so the plantation could support biodiversity instead of becoming just another green-looking number. After plantation, the saplings were protected, watered, pruned, and cared for. Tree plantation becomes meaningful only when the planted saplings survive, grow, and become part of the ecosystem.
Our process is not just about plantation. It is nature restoration with responsibility.
Naam Foundation, in collaboration with the Government of Maharashtra, has rejuvenated 9 community farm ponds in Shahapur, Thane, increasing their total water storage capacity to 4.5 crore litres.
This initiative will help bring 75 acres of land under cultivation next year. With improved water availability, farmers in the region will be able to shift towards better crop patterns, strengthening agricultural productivity and improving livelihoods.
Small-scale fisheries are also being planned in the villages, creating additional income opportunities for local communities.
A step towards water security, sustainable farming, and rural prosperity.
