Gift Package: Buy a fuel-efficient stove for a family

All Photos A $125 donation can help support the installation of one fuel-efficient cook stove. The use of traditional wood-burning stoves represents a triple threat to women, their families, and communities as a health risk, economic burden, and environmental strain. Families traditionally use open-pit fires to cook at home, but the smoke from these fires threatens the health of women and children and is one of the leading causes of death in the developing world. These fires also require greater firewood consumption, resulting in the degradation of critical tropical forests. Your $125 gift will support the construction of a fuel-efficient stove for one family, which will improve human health and the environment by strengthening the role of women in identifying, understanding, and addressing negative impacts associated with indoor air pollution and the degradation of forest and water resources.
