ONE NET. 10 BUCKS. SAVES LIVES.
Imagine that you get bitten by a mosquito in your backyard and you think; great, this is going to be itchy tomorrow. Meanwhile someone in Africa gets bitten and they think it’s pretty harmless until a few days later when they start to experiencing signs of malaria.
People that live in Sub-Saharan Africa are surrounded by Malaria every day. So much so that 1 in 5 children will die of malaria by the time they turn 5 and every 30 seconds a child will die of malaria.
To stop this deadly parasite from spreading there is nets that you can purchase for only $10.00 and they cut the chance of the people getting malaria by 50%! These nets can cover a whole family for when they sleep which makes a huge difference for just $10.00. So why not instead of buying that shirt you really wanted, you save a life?
Every net saves lives but unfortunately while you were reading this blog a little daughter, son, brother, sister, mother or father just died of malaria.
