Vita has developed a very cheap but hugely efficient stove in order to counteract the significant problems arising from cooking for the family.   Women and girls in this area walk many miles daily to find firewood for cooking, carrying it homes on their backs or heads.  Often girls have to stay out of school help with this or to mind their siblings while their mother does this work.  When their food is cooked on open fires it causes a very large amount smoke, with the associated serious health issues such as eye disease, asthma, bronchitis and severe lung disease.  The stove is efficient in reducing the necessity for so much firewood, and containing the smoke to counteract the health impact.  Less wood searching and less maternal illness reduces the need for girls to be away from school.  The pre-cast concrete stove is made locally, thereby providing jobs, but there are many families could never save $20 in order to purchase one.  This program would provide a stove for 50 families, making an immense impact on the health of women and girls, as well as allowing the girls to remain in school, thereby enhancing their education.  100% of all money donated to this cause will be used to fund the production of Carbon emission-reducing to women in Arba Minch, Ethiopia
