              My land is on top of a hill, furthest from
           here. Earlier, I used to carry water up the
           hill to water the dry land. Now, because
             of the solar powered pump, water is
           pumped all the way up there. We never
           imagined it would be possible for water
          to reach so high up. The whole village has
              benefitted from the solar pump.
