Mrs. Laura Bush and Ms. Jenna Bush stand with Zambian First Lady Mrs. Maureen Mwanawasa, dressed in red, and her daughter Ms. Chipo Mwanawasa, far left, as they watch children demonstrate how the PlayPump works at the Regiment Basic School Thursday, June 28, 2007, in Lusaka, Zambia. Working similar to a merry-go-round, the PlayPump pumps clean drinking water into a reservoir tank as the children sit on and spin it. Before the pump was installed many of the 1,200 students at the school had to bring water to school or walk long distances to find water. The school also has used the water to expand its garden, providing fresh vegetables to the more vulnerable students. White House photo by Lynden Steele
