Wow! In June, the Ouelessebougou Alliance received a large gift from a local foundation here in Salt Lake City that allows us to reach even more families who need mosquito nets. As we have probably pointed out before, the funds we raise for nets allows us to distribute nets in the 25 villages where we work. BUT, it is a first come, first served process. There is never enough money in our budget to provide new, insecticide treated nets to every family who needs one. This gift will provide an additional 1,700 families with this life-saving tool.
The more families that we can cover, the better off the entire community is. Please continue to support this important initiative. We deliver the nets, train families on the proper usage AND follow up to make sure they are using them!
We are grateful for all our supporters out there...including YOU!
