Description
Many impoverished communities we serve rely on firewood for cooking, contributing to environmental degradation and health risks.
Environmental and health challenges
A kerosene stove offers a practical solution that reduces the need for firewood, minimizing deforestation and the harmful effects of indoor smoke. This reliable and efficient cooking method improves the lives of families while promoting sustainability and environmental stewardship.
Promoting safety
The gift of a kerosene stove offers families a safer and more efficient way to prepare their meals. Cooking with firewood can be hazardous, leading to indoor air pollution and accidental fires. Families can cook in a controlled and safe environment with a kerosene stove, reducing the risk of respiratory illnesses and burns. Additionally, the efficiency of a kerosene stove saves time and energy, enabling households to allocate their resources more effectively.
