I am in a volunteer orginization called Engineers Without Borders. On the Kolunje project, I am a senior advisor to the Rutgers Chapter. Our project here is to drill a water well, and distribute water to points in the community where villagers can go to get their jugs filled for drinking water. Currently their shallow wells dry up in the dry season and drinking surface water causes much illness.
I am here with 4 students, and another senior engineer. For this trip our goal is to meet the community, and gather information so we can proceed with the design. An estimate on the population that we have to serve is 12,000 people.
