Our mission

With over 7 years experience in the environment protection sector by distributing improved cook stoves in Rwanda, our focus lies on reducing the carbon emissions, reducing deforestation, reducing cooking and wood collection time, reducing poverty, as the efficient wood stove reduces annual expenditure on cooking fuels. The stoves have also reduced adverse health effects associated with smoke inhalation.

Testimonials from stove end-users

“It allowed me to rest more because I used to spend more time for collecting wood when cooking with the traditional stove, often numerous hours per week. Since I am living alone, there is nobody else who can help me with this task. The improved cook stove needs less wood and therefore I was able to rest instead of collecting wood all the time..”

Marie MUKARUGWIZA, stove end-user

Niyokwizerwa Vumiliya, an end user from Kayonza district, Ndego sector, Karambi cell. She likes the stove very much for it uses less wood and doesn’t produce too much smoke. “The stove helped my family to save time and the saved time is used for other domestic works especially taking care of her kids.”

“This stove cooks faster and doesn’t produce too much smoke. It’s not easy to find the firewood in this area. I was able to save time because this stove reduced the travels I made in search of wood. My kitchen is always clean and I also like this stove for it cooks faster compared with other cooking devices. My heart is overwhelmed with joy because of this amazing project.”
