One of the challenges girls face in Sierra Leone is the threat of Malaria. Thanks in part to your ongoing support, mosquito nets are distributed to girls throughout the year. The girls are always very thankful for the mosquito nets, which prevent mosquitoes from biting them at night. Haja pictured here shows us how the mosquito net that she recently received is used.
Long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) aka mosquito nets are a proven way to prevent Malaria. By providing girls like Haja, with mosquito nets, you are helping them stay healthy and in school where they can continue their education.
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 setting up a recurring donation. Even a few dollars a month will go a long way for girls' education.
Please also share this with your contacts and invite them to consider supporting girls' education. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.
With great appreciation,
Amy and the Develop Africa team
