Leave a Lasting Mark With A Legacy Gift

By leaving a legacy gift to StoveTeam International, you help ensure that our work continues for generations—providing families with cleaner air, protecting their loved ones, and building healthier, more sustainable communities.

There are many ways to support StoveTeam’s mission, but legacy giving is unique. It is a gift that extends beyond your lifetime—an enduring commitment that transforms lives for years to come. Your legacy becomes part of the story of families who no longer have to cook over dangerous open fires, children who grow up in safe, smoke-free homes, and communities that thrive with healthier futures.

One way to build a legacy that transforms kitchens into safe places where families can come together for years to come is by including a gift in your will or trust.

Have you already included a gift in your will or trust? Please send us an email to let us know. We would love to thank you for your generosity, welcome you to our Legacy Society, and discuss any details you might like us to know. 

 

“Leaving a lasting financial legacy is an extremely personal decision. How can I best leverage the value of my estate to directly and positively impact a great number of people for many years to come? I sifted through dozens of non-profits locally, nationally, and internationally before finally choosing StoveTeam International. They are a grassroots oriented organization that makes a profound impact on the families receiving their stoves and the stove builders they train and hire from rural communities. Their Justa program is a well developed stove project that is centered on community participation and is elevated through a rigorous monitoring and evaluation program, which enables them to continue to better serve their communities, and makes me proud to include them in my legacy.”
