Tanzania Water Project?

Question

Hey guys, so for my church we have to do a world service project and we decided to bring water to people in Tanzania. They have clean water, but no well to retrieve it from. So we're going to build one. Right now we're investigationg different systems that work well, are easy to keep in order, and will last a fair amount of time at a good price. If you have any information from people in Africa or around here that do that type of thing please let me know. Thanks!

Answer 2

Oh my i cant remember what its called but i saw a video in my diversity training about this water wheel thing that they are installing all over africa.  Its like a play toy for the kids....like a merry go round, but when they ride it around and push it, it brings up water. Its  HUGE hit in the villages. I am not sure what it is called but you could probably find it.
