How to Use a Bed Net - See a Mosquito Bed Net in Use

Last week, we read an illuminating article discussing the eradication of malaria. The article reminds us that malaria is still a deadly disease, deserving of our attention:

Malaria, a mosquito-borne illness, is one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases. More than two hundred million people contract the disease each year, and more than four hundred thousand die from it. Once transmitted in nearly every country on earth, today the vast majority of infections occur in sub-Saharan Africa. Nearly 70 percent of malaria deaths are in children under five.

Thanks to your support we are continuing to provide bed nets to new families that are in need.  I know it's hard to believe that a $10 bed net can save a life... but it does.  Each bed net, that we are able to provide to someone in need, is protecting them from malaria while they sleep.

Our goal is to continue to help save as many lives as possible till malaria is eradicated.

Let's Go Back Stage: Have you ever slept under a mosquito net?  If not we have a video for you - of a young lady, whose family just received a bed net, thanks to your generosity.  In the video, we get a look back stage, into her bedroom.  She shows us how to use a bed net, hanging from the ceiling. It is simple and yet powerful.

Please take a minute to watch the video-  https://youtu.be/iX3bqlj2IOw

You have enabled us to provide bed nets to many families, but many more families are still in need of bed nets. Please continue to support this project and help us provide many more bed nets.

 

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.
