For people that are refugees, displaced, or in war-torn countries, being able to travel with cooking supplies can be next to impossible.
Fireplace manufacturer Escea has created a simple yet brilliant design for a portable stove, and it arrives in a completely flat-pack design. This makes for much cheaper production, and delivery.
This not-for-profit initiative has already delivered over 8,000 of the Fire for Life stoves, impacting the lives of 42,000+ people.
Made to be easy to assemble, lightweight, and effective, the stove is meant to burn efficiently and cleanly off of wood or charcoal.
Distributed by aid groups like ReliefAid, Fire for Life is an impressively simple yet impactful project.
By buying one for yourself, you’ll be donating two to those in need. See more on Escea’s website.
“The Fire for Life Cooking Stove has been specifically designed as a replacement for open fire cooking in the developing world.
Existing cooking setups in these communities aren’t ideal, nor are they safe – from the time and resources it takes to build an open fire, to the scarce and expensive wood required to burn; the fires can’t easily be moved around, and they’re often unsafe in difficult conditions.
The portable light-weight Fire for Life Cooking Stove has been designed with communities like these in mind – it can be easily moved around, is simple to light and keep burning, requires less fuel and burns cleaner. The Fire for Life Cooking Stove gives families like these a safer, more efficient way to cook.”
