Solar Cookers for Darfur
 
Adas Israel members again have the opportunity to bring light and sustenance to the people of Darfur, still displaced and in refugee camps. This will be the congregation’s third Hanukkah nefesh ahat min haolam.
 
The Solar Cooker Project enables women to remain safely in the camps, using the solar cookers, without having to leave to find firewood and risk attack. The women also have income opportunities through making additional solar cookers, training others to use the cookers, and making carrying bags to increase the cookers' life span.
 
A gift of $30 provides two solar cookers, two pots and potholders, a year’s supply of cooking bags, and training for the refugee women and girls.
