Mission
Our mission is to restore hope and peace in developing countries by teaching sustainable living techniques and by leveraging science and technology. We initiated a pilot test with 50 of the BSH Protos stoves in June 2011.
Other Organizational Expertise
We are growing castor and jatropha to produce oil for clean cookstoves. We also provide training to farmers. Excess oil we produce is used for soap making and biofuels.;We provide vocational training for women and microloans.
Technologies & Fuels
Biomass (Ag. Residue, Processed Biomass, etc.)
Clean Cooking Activities
We are working in Costa Rica and Burundi. We teach farmers to grow castor and jatropha, which will supply oil for the Protos. We are targeting the extreme poor in Burundi and the poor in Central America who currently use wood for cooking.
Partnership
We are willing to share the results of surveys we have conducted from our pilot studies. We are also looking to expand to several more countries and are looking for partners that will work with us to facilitate expansion.
