IRS990/Desc0Rural Ugandans are among the 4 billion people in the developing world still using an ancient method of cooking - an open fire.Exposure to smoke causes 4.3 million deaths every year and causes respiratory and eye diseases. An open cooking fire consumes over 100 cubic feet a wood a year and releases 5 tons of carbon into the atmosphere. Aid Africa/ARDSO engineer Larry Winiarski designed a simple and elegant solution - the Six Brick Rocket Stove. The bricks are made locally from readily available clay and organic matter. Aid Africa/ARDSO delivers the bricks to rural villages and teaches each woman how to assemble and maintain her own stove. Every stove installation is plotted with GPS coordinates. The stove reduces household emissions by 75% (compared to a traditional cooking fire). No more blinding smoke and sore red eyes. No more house fires, choking, breathing problems and lung disease. The stove uses only half as much wood, so fewer hours are spent collecting wood available for tending to family, farming, and business. In addition, the Aid Africa Rocket Stove project has helped spawn a cottage industry providing jobs, training opportunities and leadership- building skills to local Acholi people. In the past 14 years Aid Africa/ARDSO has installed over 50,000 Six Brick Rocket Stoves.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Uganda is ranked 159 of 187 on the Human Development Index, and 40% of the population does not have access to an improved water source. Most Ugandans obtain water from rivers, ponds, and unprotected springs, often sharing these resources with livestock. The inhabitants are vulnerable to communicable and noncommunicable water diseases, which are leading causes of death in these communities. Drilling rigs are in short supply, expensive, costly to maintain and it is difficult to reach rural communities. Aid Africa/ARDSO addressed the problem by developing a simple drilling tool and rig and works with local communities to drill their own wells. Aid Africa/ARDSO also repairs broken wells and teaches villages how to build sheltered springs.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Years of war, refugee camps, and unsustainable agricultural and living practices have left much of Northern Uganda stripped of its native trees. Aid Africa/ARDSO raises and distributes thousands of seedlings to provide communities with fruit, fuel, building materials and shade that communities need to thrive.
