Around the world, four million people—mostly women and children—die each year as a direct result of indoor air pollution from open cooking fires. Each $75 Justa cookstove built by StoveTeam’s local partners in Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Honduras saves an average family of eight people from the dangers of smoke and burns. The improved Justa cookstove also greatly reduces wood fuel consumption and resultant air pollution and global warming gasses. “One out of every three households worldwide cooks their daily meals over a dangerous open fire” says Kim Forrest, Marketing Director of FORREST Technical Coatings. “We hope other HPBA members will join this effort to help families in Central America access clean indoor cooking solutions.” FORREST is an active HPBA member as the producer of Stove Bright High Temperature Paint and related consumer products. ![Justa Cookstove StoveTeam International](https://resources.forrestpaint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Justa%20Cookstove%20StoveTeam%20International.png?width=351&name=Justa%20Cookstove%20StoveTeam%20International.png) FORREST teamed up with long-time customer Craig Gutowski of [The Foundry](https://www.thefoundry.ca/) in Canada to support StoveTeam International’s nomination to be the HPBA’s Charity of Choice. The two companies are the first two corporate sponsors of the campaign. Both Gutowski and Forrest have worked with StoveTeam International in the field in Guatemala to deliver and install clean cookstoves in homes. “StoveTeam's approach empowers in-country entrepreneurs and communities to build stoves, which maximizes the impact of donor dollars,” says Kim Forrest who currently serves on the organization’s Board of Directors. "Because both Craig and I have participated first hand in StoveTeam's efforts, we feel confident our corporate donation through StoveTeam will genuinely improve the health of these families and communities."
