A "Jiko" for your Thoughts

hello,

i am just so excited to announce that we have our first pioneer jikos ready and in use...


this is what we are thinking will be the face of Kenya, Africa in the months and years to come.....
Electricity and gas here in Kenya amount to being used by a small number of people, less than ten percent of the population, why..it is expensive and beyond reach of many....

and this economy wood saving jiko...i hope will dot many homes in the villages both in my community and the rest ..as it is affordable...and it's advantage is that it will save our forests and keep the rain coming.

This indeed makes me so excited today as i see this mama enjoying using it ..it makes ma heart warm...hope it makes yours too.

have a great day

jonah

Note

Project Cost for making, delivering and installing one Jiko Stove:
Jiko (pot) Ksh.600
Cement 850
Bricks (20) = 300
Transport= 1000
Labor = 1000
Total: 3750 Kenyan Shillings or $48.00 US (approx. 6 months ago the cost was $61.00 US). Now is the time to give and make the funds stretch to meet Kenyan needs.
