Current Campaign:
Clean Air Initiative:Smokeless Kitchens
Cooking in rural Southern Uganda, where electricity and natural gas remain non-existent, entails long hours of constant indoor smoke exposure to the old and young. This leads to acute heath problems including recurrent bronchitis and pneumonia. Anticipated long term effects include irreversible lung damage. Smokeless kitchens, though unable to eradicate the smoke completely, use less wood, shorten cooking times and reduce indoor smoke accumulation.
We began this campaign installing smokeless kitchens in the summer of 2021. Each kitchen costs 20 dollars and so far we have installed 38. Please join us in installing the remains 129 kitchens by clicking the Sponsor this Project button below.
