Salathiso is a group of HIV-positive women from the Kayamandi community on the outskirts of Stellenbosch. As a collective, they have started producing hot boxes - a product they identified as a solution to their own energy needs and reducing the burdensome costs of fuel. the proceeds from the sales are shared amongst the women. For most of the group this is their sole source of income.

These unplugged slow cookers cost about R150. Larger ones, for institution-sized pots, are also available on request.
