One of the things we love about working in Kenya is our partners' creativity and ability to utilize resources in a variety of ways to become more self sustainable and 'green'. We see this in the use of solar panels for energy, using milk and eggs from our livestock, reusing materials for infrastructure use, farming the land for meals, and much more.

Recently, the bi-product of our cow population has been getting our attention and we are hoping to find a use for it! Biogas is a great resource that can be utilized in our kitchen as well as in our science labs. In order to convert cow waste into usable gas, we need to purchase a conversion kit. It will cost us $1,600 but will immediately save our ministry $300/month as we will no longer need to purchase as much charcoal. Using literal cow pies will generate as much as 80% of the gas needed for cooking meals!
