190 Mosquito Nets Distributed in 2021

In Sierra Leone, research has proven that one in every two children under the age of five admitted into pediatric care is affected by malaria. Mosquito nets create an effective barrier and provide protection from mosquito bites for two years hence preventing Malaria and reducing the burden of Malaria in Sierra Leone.

Thanks in part to your ongoing support, Develop Africa distributed 190 mosquito bed nets treated with insecticide to families in Sierra Leone in 2021.  Among the 190 mosquito nets distributed, 100 mosquito nets were distributed to children and families in Freetown, Bo, and Makeni, and 90 mosquito nets were distributed to pupils at the Stella Maris Primary School and Morthain community.

Your continued support is appreciated as we strive to provide 300 children/families in Sierra Leone with protective long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) in 2022. Every donation received helps purchase more mosquito nets and saves more lives. If you are not already a recurring donor you can start a monthly recurring donation here.  

 

Families in Sierra Leone face unprecedented challenges due to rising costs. Inflation makes it difficult for them to afford basic food staples such as rice, cooking oil, and onions.

Extending a helping hand can alleviate a significant burden and provide essential relief to the less fortunate.

Give the Gift of Joy This Holiday Season 🎁


You can light up a child's life in Africa this holiday season. Imagine the joy of a young girl opening her very first book or a boy receiving a backpack filled with school supplies to fuel his dreams. For many children, a holiday gift isn't just a moment of happiness – it’s a message of hope, love, and possibility.

At Develop Africa, we believe every child deserves to feel special, especially during the holidays. But for too many children in underserved communities, the season comes and goes without even a small token of celebration. With your help, we can change that.

A donation of just $25 can provide a meaningful gift – a backpack, school supplies, or even a toy – to a needy child. Your generosity will show them that someone far away cares deeply about their future and happiness.

Make this holiday season unforgettable for a child. Please donate now to our Holiday Gift for a Child campaign and be part of a life-changing moment. Together, we can spread joy, ignite hope, and make the holidays magical for children in Africa.
