1 Cor. 10:31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.

That whatever includes standup paddle Boarding. Today because of the generosity of many I was able to cross to Cozumel on my paddleboard for the glory of God. When all the donations are in the total will be close to $4000 raised! This is a great answer to prayer! This will make it possible for us to pay the school fees and purchase school uniforms for 89 needy young people… Praise God!

Our Goal is to install 100 Wood Stoves in Chan Chen




Currently in Chan Chen, families use open-flame, three-stone fires inside their one-room palapa homes leading to...




Excessive smoke inhalation being the leading cause of death in Mayan children under the age of five, according to the World Health Organization.
Children and adults being terribly burned due to falling into the fire.
Having over two times the safe level of carbon monoxide gas in their living environment.
Spending hours daily gathering wood to burn.
Black soot covering their living space.
High rates of Acute Respiratory Infections.







We have found a durable stove that minimizes smoke and burns and reduces wood use by 70% while maintaining traditional Mayan cooking methods.
The ONIL Stove

   






The fire is contained in a clay-fired firebox in an insulated, durable stove that sits off the floor, thus minimizing the risk of burns
Vented by a galvanized steel chimney, the stove uses an efficient burning technology, and virtually eliminates smoke and deadly carbon monoxide in the home.
The ONIL stove reduces wood consumption by 70%, resulting in  a long-term benefit to the environment and a better quality of life for families.
Women who use the ONIL stove gain the equivalent of two days a week in time saved from gathering wood.



Please help us reach our goal of 100 stoves so all families can experience the benefits.
