$6 Life-Saving Anti-Malaria Bednets

A-Z bednet factory

A woman works at the A-Z textile company - the largest producer of bednets in Africa. Because of the bednet project, she now has a job with a higher income, allowing her to give herself and her family more opportunities.

Women weaving bednets

In Arusha, Tanzania, over 100 people (mostly women) now have jobs in the A-Z bednet factory. They are earning better wages in better working conditions than before, all while producing life-saving anti-malaria bednets

Typical House Requiring Bednet Protection

This thatched roof house in Tanzania is typical of the houses that require bednet protection. During the night, mosquitos can enter through the small windows or the cracks in the door. Our bednets can be used as curtains, preventing mosquitos from entering the home.

Bednet Distribution

A woman receives a bednet that will protect her and her family from life-threatening malaria. We are using innovative distribution systems to ensure that bednets reach those who need it most.
