As funding permits, MANDO involves volunteers in project development, implementation, monitoring and evaluation as well as when completed, handing over the project to the community. Some activities would be:
gather information about a project's locale and interviews with the local notables to produce an audio or video clip (with translation) to further identify needs
cite pump locations, use GPS to document unique terrains
prepare a proposal with budget for the tools, materials and work required for a specific part of a project
share stories of the communities receiving project support so that donors and sponsors can learn why the need is so great
work on a specific task such as tank and water trough construction or fixing hand pumps
compiling reports on progress to MANDO and to donors and sponsors including photos, GPS coordinates and benefits to a community
train communities in repairing and maintaining boreholes or pumps, sanitation and hygiene practices
