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.
