SOLAR POWERED WATER PUMPS EXPLAINED, PART 1

In this too-raw footage which took forever to up load to You Tube, Eric Sabelman of Palo Alto Friends Meeting and board member of If Pigs Could Fly - Haiti, patiently describes to us lay folk the intricacies of pumps and panels here in Part 1.  Part 2 will demonstrate the building of the tower, with fittings and hooks and sinkers.  This information will be translated orally during my summer sojourn June-July, as this video is shared with our colleagues and Gwoupman (GEZ) of Zoranje zone.  An instruction booklet, in Kreyol and English and French, will accompany all the apparatus when the fine-tuning and trouble-shooting is complete.

Bos Eric's target date is September.  If you would like to lend a hand, either on the ground with us and/or with a donation or assist with a back-translation of the instruction booklet, please Join the Cause, here  http://www.causes.com/causes/529435
