Igniting Energy. Inspiring Change.
Over 90% of Ugandan households and schools rely on firewood and charcoal as their main source of energy for cooking. These methods are:
-
Expensive and time-consuming
-
Unhealthy for people and the environment
-
Unsafe for children (often girls) who are not in school and at risk of assault
-
Unsustainable for the future
Uganda is running out of trees and risking the health of women and children just to cook a daily meal.
We are on a mission to change this.
Operating from our BioFarm in Central Uganda, we are partnering with schools, local farmers, and businesses to distribute biodigesters across East Africa.
Biodigesters are:
-
Affordable and time-saving
-
Healthy for people and the environment
-
A way to keep children (especially girls) safe and in school
-
Sustainable for the future
One cow can produce enough waste to power a biodigester for a family of 7 to boil clean water and cook three meals each day!
