Tape and Maria went to Nawampiti to continue teaching participants how to fuel efficient stoves.
Tape found when the members had already prepared material for building the first stove, she checked and the everything was in order for the two homes that they had chosen to get stoves that day. Kibo asked the participants also to join in stamping the dirt,this was intended to ensure that they master the process of mixing the dirt and stamping it because the program aims at empowering the community with a skill of building stoves.

Kibo staff thanked the participants for being active and encouraged them to continue
Participating in the program because practice makes perfect.
