This is an Engineers Without Borders project run by the northern New Jersey Chapter. We are going to drill a water well and install a hand pump so the villagers have access to clean water.

India MKII Pump is on the way
After talking with the drillers, pump suppliers and some members of our technical team back home, we're accepting the recommendation of the standard India MkII extra deep pump. Maintenance will be more involved than with the VLOM cylinder, but we're having the manual translated into Swahili and Luo, so that should mitigate some of the downside of not using the VLOM. We also confirmed that there is at least one qualified repair person in the area.
