The Impact
Empowerment is at the heart of our business.
When a Wonderbag is used by women in developing countries, it transforms lives. Time that was previously spent collecting firewood and tending the fire, can now be spent in education, employment, or setting up their own business.
Our social impact is not limited to developing countries. As a social enterprise we partner with organisations helping families struggling with the cost of living crisis, using the Wonderbag to their reduce energy bills and ease their financial worries.
Change is Needed
Globally, the world is experiencing record energy prices and soaring carbon emissions, placing significant financial pressure on households, and our planet.
In addition, 2.5 billion people still cook over an open fire each day. This causes significant emissions, widespread deforestation, burdens women with hours of unpaid labour, and jeopardises their health.
Wonderbag is the solution to this crisis.
The Magic Of Wonderbag
Handmade in South Africa, the Wonderbag is a simple, but revolutionary, non-electric slow cooker.
After bringing a pot of food to the boil and placing it in a Wonderbag, the food will continue cooking for up to eight hours without any additional energy source.
No battery, plug or fuel required - just simple heat retention technology.
Carbon finance.
Our innovative carbon finance model aims to empower individuals and communities, whilst simultaneously tackling the climate crisis.
We partner with like-minded organisations by issuing high-quality carbon credits certified by Verra. This valuable source of funding helps to scale up the manufacturing and distribution of Wonderbags, enabling us to bring about positive change to hundreds-of-thousands of households across Africa.
Our Wonderbag Gift Cards are a thoughtful, useful & sustainable present for food lovers wanting to save time cooking & support those in need. You decide on the value & they decide on the Wonderbag.
From traditional South African stews & camp-fire staples, to pulse-based soups & curries & special recipes from international guest chefs, our Recipe Collection has something for everyone.
All proceeds from the Wonderbag commercial business support The Wonderbag Foundation, with a portion of every Wonderbag sold worldwide contributing to the Foundation's efforts.
