Salva Dut's program "Water for South Sudan" drills wells for villages in South Sudan.        
Drilling  a well is not easy and takes a lot of time.Everyone at the subjected village pitches in.
First, women collect rocks because there is no gravel.Then, the rocks are broken and sorted to make gravel. Then, muddy water is used to lubricate the drill. Drilling a well
takes a while. After that, the dirty water is removed using a hydrolic
pump. Finally, the gravel is added and a pipe and pump are too.
