Dear donors,
Thank you for your support and for caring about displaced families in Nigeria.
Many families in IDP camps struggle to cook meals safely. Without electricity or affordable kerosene, they often rely on open fires, which cause smoke, burns, and respiratory illnesses. Rising fuel costs make it even harder, and recent cuts in support from UN agencies and USAID have left thousands without safe cooking options.
This project will provide 500 efficient charcoal stoves to families in five camps: Area 1, Kuchigoro, Masaka, Borno, and Benue State. These stoves burn cleaner, cook faster, and use less fuel. They are easy to use, require no electricity or kerosene, and will make daily cooking safer and more affordable, especially for women, children, and the elderly.
The donations collected so far are not enough to get the project underway, but we remain hopeful that with more support, we can reach these families and help them cook safely and reduce health risks.
To prospective donors, thank you for considering support. Even a small gift can help a family cook safely, save time and fuel, and protect their health.
With thanks,
Ugbede-Ojo Dominic Kadiri
