StoveTeam International named HPBA & HPAC’s Charity of Choice for 2026!
StoveTeam International is excited to once again be named HPBA & HPAC’s Charity of Choice for 2026!
With the continued support of the hearth industry, StoveTeam International surpassed its goals in 2025—placing more than 1,500 fuel-efficient cookstoves in communities across Guatemala, Nicaragua, and El Salvador. We are deeply grateful to our 2025 1,000 Stove Challenge Sponsors—Associated Energy Systems, ICC Compagnie de Cheminée Industrielle Inc, The Foundry, Empire Comfort, Woodland Direct, and Acme Stove—for their generosity and commitment to our mission.
February marks the launch of our 2026 1,000 Stove Challenge, and we invite you to join us as a sponsor. Your support directly helps replace dangerous open-fire cooking with safe, fuel-efficient Justa Cookstoves for families who need them most.
You can sponsor a family with One Justa Cookstove for just $250

- Reduce household fuel use by up to 50%
- Reduce carbon emissions and deforestation
- Eliminate household smoke by nearly 100%, creating a safer, cleaner home
