Supporting food and education programs for impoverished children in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, providing hope and opportunity for a brighter future

Teens enjoy a solar cooking demonstration at summer camp

Posted Aug 26th, 2010

A teacher from the San Francsico bay area volunteered to show children how to design and create solar ovens at the summer camp last week. Solar ovens allow people to cook meals without having to pay for propane or charcoal, thus saving money while enhancing self-sufficiency.

The teens gave him rave reviews for his presentation about solar cooking, which included a demonstration of how to cook eggs in a solar oven. (See photos above.)

Then, with supplies the teacher generously purchased in Port-au-Prince, each teen had a chance to create his or her own cooker. The children so appreciated this unique opportunity to learn about solar cooking.

The children so appreciated this special class.

Thank you John!
