The Q-Drum, a circular jerry can, holds 20 gallons, and it rolls smoothly enough for a child to tow it on a rope.

Until the child arrives at a downhill slope....




I've seen both the old way of carrying water and a Q-Drum being used in a rural village and was blown away by what a difference the Q-Drum makes and what a fantastic idea it was.

It's inspiring how even seemingly-simple ideas can make a difference in people's lives.


...which is when the fun begins. Yipeeeee!!


So when he is taking the usual jerrycan he won't go by the downhill?
