A rural farmer from Uganda Community Outreach Coordinator “There is no running water in my village so I've come here to check on what you are doing, to see where I could get some ideas or use your machine to pump water to my village. ” “This is easy… The cost is not bad… it's not as rigid as [the MoneyMaker prototype], you are relaxed and seated. Yours is perfect."
