The EcoStove Project (previously Nicaragua Carbon Offset Fund) places clean efficient cookstoves with families and small businesses in Goyena and Troilo to reduce indoor air pollution (responsible for a significant amount of respiratory disease), wood expense, and greenhouse gas emissions.

​

NHLSCP – with your help – subsidizes half the $140 cost of the stoves, and the rural families pay the other half in monthly installments over a year. This costs them about $5 per month or about what a typical family saves on wood with the new stoves. The EcoStoves are made at a small business in Leon.

​

The EcoStoves can also be considered a carbon offset. EcosStove donations are also a way to support climate justice and recognize the responsibility of wealthier countries to support lower income communities trying to cope with increasing climate impacts.
