Your continued support is greatly appreciated and is helping provide long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) also called bed nets or mosquito nets to families and individuals in Sierra Leone. These mosquito nets create an effective barrier and provide protection from mosquito bites while families sleep. Because of the mosquito nets they received, children like Brenda, pictured here, can now focus on their education and not on malaria.
Brenda is about to start her final year of senior secondary school. She enjoys singing and playing the trombone and works hard in school. She hopes to be a lawyer someday so that she can help take care of those in need in her community.
Your continued support is appreciated as we strive to provide more families, like Brenda's, in Sierra Leone with protective long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs). Our recurring donors are making a continuous impact and we are truly grateful for the ongoing support. If you are not yet a recurring donor, we warmly invite you to consider starting a monthly recurring donation here.
For only $10 you can save lives by providing a family with a mosquito net.

Today, April 25, is World Malaria Day and this year’s theme is “Time to deliver zero malaria: invest, innovate, implement.”
Key Facts from https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/malaria
Malaria is a life-threatening disease spread to humans by some types of mosquitoes. Most cases and deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa. It is preventable and curable.
The statistics are alarming, but the good news as quoted above "Malaria is preventable and curable". One proven way to reduce the risk of malaria is with bed nets aka mosquito nets aka insecticide-treated nets. Bed nets create an effective barrier and provide protection from mosquito bites for up to three years hence preventing Malaria and reducing the burden of Malaria in Sierra Leone.
Bed nets were recently distributed to students and families in the Yoke Village. Each individual and family was very grateful to receive the insecticide-treated nets.
Your ongoing support will help invest, innovate, and implement the zero malaria theme by continuing to provide bed nets to families and individuals in Sierra Leone and to protect them from Malaria.
