The event we are hosting is going to raise funds to support out campaign of "Cooking up Love". Did you know that Mothers and children all across rural El Salvador spend hours each day cooking their family meals on open fires inside their homes. Inhaling this smoke day after day, year after year, becomes deadly and has caused a lot of heartache in these poor communities. In fact, indoor kitchen smoke kills more than 1 million children each year in developing countries. 


Stoves cost a minimal $200 in training and materials to provide a lifetime of clean air for mothers and kids (those who are mostly affected because they are at home and cooking). This project also really connects people together as they help each other in their homes.

Our goal is to raise enough funds to provide 15-20 stores through this great event. We need your help to reach this goal. Your generous donation of a raffle item, silent action item or desserts for the evening will help us help these precious lives in El Salvador.
