Through our partnership with ReduceOurCarbon.org, we support initiatives that transform lives in rural South America. By funding smokeless stoves, we help reduce harmful emissions, providing clean air and improving the health of women and children in underserved communities.
Modern smokeless stove being used by a family in a rural South American kitchen. The stove is made of durable, eco-friendly materials, efficiently burning fuel with minimal smoke, ensuring improved air quality. The clean, cozy kitchen is a beacon of hope, with sunlight streaming through a window that reveals lush greenery outside. The program transforms health and environmental benefits of smokeless stoves.
ReduceOurCarbon support a thriving agroforestry system in a rural landscape, with wows of healthy crops grow among scattered trees, demonstrating a perfect synergy between agriculture and forestry. The trees provide shade, prevent soil erosion, and improve biodiversity. Wildlife, such as birds and small animals, enrich the environment & provide ecological benefits.
