firewood for cooking


In the orphanage we entirely depend on the firewood for cooking and for fire. We collect firewood from the forest about 20 kilometers from the home which is used for our basic food cooking.The firewood is our only source of fuel to the Orphanage.Without the firewood we basically cant get food for our children.
We usually collect about one trip in each month from the forest.This requires transportation and also some expenses of collecting the firewood.The children in the home and also the staff use axe which makes it hard to split big logs of firewood like you see in the picture to be used for firewood.We are anticipating to look for a power saw that can make work easier by cutting the logs into small pieces and also get alot of firewood in the Orphanage and which can last for along time while using them.
We also have a constrain in storing firewood since when it rains the wood become wet and makes it hard to light and make it difficult in using them.We are also looking forward to get a place of storing the firewood and keep the dry.
For any help you can give or enquiries you can reach us using jangote@lahash.com
