Wello WaterWheel

Wello is proof that a simple design can change the world.  This clever water transportation device provides clean water access and economic opportunities to populations in developing countries.

As a Wello board member, I have been proud to support the project for the past few years as part of Freeworld Media's corporate responsibility program.
