Life is full of difficult decisions, but some are more difficult than others. In Sri Lanka, women and children must face the threat of landmines while going to collect firewood for cooking their meals at home. A mother must choose between putting her daughter’s life at risk or having no means to cook and feed her family.
WFP plans to give women in conflict-affected areas of Sri Lanka a safe, energy-saving stove for their homes. These stoves will also be produced within the country, creating more jobs. Just $5 buys a stove for a family. Why not transform the lives of 10 mothers with a donation of $50?

United National Women 4 Women were a sponsor at the ShesConnected Conference September 29-30, 2011. The women at the conference started the donation process and we wanted to empower other women to help women.
