2.1 billion around the world still cook every meal, every day using firewood, charcoal, animal dung, or other polluting fuels—all because they lack access to modern fuel sources like propane (also known as liquified petroleum gas, or LPG). The smoke from cooking causes over 3 million deaths per year globally! The Bettering Human Lives Foundation is working to improve access to clean-burning LPG for cooking in sub-Saharan Africa.

Every dollar we raise will support the foundation's mission of expanding access to clean-burning cooking fuels in sub-Saharan Africa by funding African innovators and entrepreneurs as they grow and expand their clean-cooking businesses.
