It was a happy day in the village of Mathimani in the Kalikumbi area. People were eager to see how the simple pump works. They liked the pump because it is very easy to use. For many years, they have been drawing water from unprotected sources, which has caused the village to be affected by various water-borne diseases each year.

People in this village are poor and struggle to find food and money for their daily living. They depend on farming and piece work. Some people have gone to South Africa in search of greener pastures.
