The Kettle Pot: a clay cookstove that uses half the charcoal
Charcoal is one of the biggest weekly costs for many families. The Kettle Pot's insulated clay lining keeps the heat around the pot instead of letting it escape.
This campaign reached its goal and is now funded. Potters in Ho are making the first 600 stoves for backers.

All-or-nothing. The organiser receives the money only if the goal is reached by the deadline. If it is not, every supporter is refunded. Backing this campaign is not an investment: you don't receive shares, interest or any other financial return.
