Proud to be introducing two more happy householders who now have one of our fuel-efficient cookstoves. Meet Aliness and Mary.
Aliness and her family of five started cooking on one of our fuel-efficient cookstoves in May and are spending less time collecting firewood.
Aliness said, “I used to go five times per week to collect firewood, now I go once per week. I am also able to use maize cobs and tree bark to cook with. This has given me more time to farm my beans, vegetables, and maize.”
At 77-years-old, Mary is grateful for the introduction of our fuel-efficient cookstove in her village. She said, “I am older so it is difficult to travel long distances for firewood. Now, I do not need to collect as much and can still cook for my family (of six).”
Mary is using the time saved to farm more and has started a small garden by her house to grow tomatoes and vegetables.”
The impact of 26 mud bricks is incredible. Learn more as to how you can offset your carbon footprint through this verified project: https://rippleafrica.org/carbon-offsetting/
