Stoves For Darfur Fuel-Efficient Stoves for women and families in DarfurHome Page Interviews By Spencer Speaking Opportunities Buy a Stove For Darfur Contact Us CNN Segment Facebook Home PageBackground:
My name is Spencer Brodsky. I am 17 years old. In the summer of 2007, I began a project to help women and families in Darfur, through the donation of fuel-efficient stoves.
Why Fuel-Efficient Stoves?
Even though there is a shortage of fuel wood in the desert, families still must rely on this resource to cook their food. Many women and children leave the relative safety of their relief camps and spend up to seven hours a day gathering fuel wood from farther and farther away. They travel to remote areas, imposing great risk upon themselves. Fuel-efficient stoves allow families to use 75% less fuel wood to cook the same amount of food. This reduces the number of wood collection trips, and also lessens the environmental degradation and deforestation.
CHF International:
CHF International is an organization with more than 50 years of experience implementing community-led solutions in more than 100 countries. My contributions are donated to their fuel-efficient stove project.
$30 Can Change A Life:
A fuel-efficient stove costs $30. My initial project goal was 400 stoves, or $12,000. I have exceeded my goal through the production and sale of a DVD about a Holocaust survival story and additional donations. Because of what these stoves mean to women and families in Darfur, I have decided to continue to work on this project by:
