Notes From the Field: CU Denver - May, 2017
Every Mujerave stove saves roughly 9,000 pounds of firewood per family, per year.
CU Denver built four stoves.
Every year, 36,000 pounds of firewood stay in local forests!

Mujerave's PlanOur plan is simple:
As a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, all-volunteer organization based in Denver, Colorado, we work with local women's groups in rural Guatemala to identify community needs and to implement high-impact projects. With the assistance of volunteers and donors, Mujerave is empowering some of the poorest women in the Western Hemisphere to improve their communities. Learn more below: |
