Welcome to sunoven.com. We are pleased you have chosen to spend some time with us. SUN OVENS International has a simple business model. We seek to help people in the U.S. save energy and prepare for emergencies while using a portion of our cash flow to promote SUN OVEN cooking in deforested developing countries. For the past 31 years, SUN OVENS have been proudly made in the U.S. We believe in free enterprise and seek to take a private-sector approach to help solve problems, which are often left to governments and nonprofit organizations, by developing self-sustaining projects in Third World nations. We strive to assist entrepreneurs to make and market GLOBAL SUN OVENS in the country in which they will be used. In addition, we assist in implementing projects to help orphanages to gain self-sufficiency through the sale of bakery goods sun-baked in VILLAGER SUN OVENS. The reason we are so passionate about our work in Third World nations is that it saves lives: 2.4 billion people still depend on wood, charcoal or dung for cooking fuel. Women who cook with wood or charcoal inhale the equivalent of smoking 3 packs of cigarettes each day. Each year, on the continent of Africa alone, over one million children under the age of 5 die from respiratory-related disease. The leading cause of respiratory infections is the indoor air pollution of cooking fires. Up to 85% of the smoke can be eliminated with the use of SUN OVENS. When you buy a SUN OVEN you are helping us with our work. We think it is the ultimate win-win situation when we can help more people in the U.S. discover the joys of cooking with the sun as they help us expand the use of SUN OVENS around the world. We want to thank those of you who have bought SUN OVENS for your important role. Without you, we could not be able to continue.
