Every contribution matters in the global fight against malaria—and thanks to your support, families in Sierra Leone are resting easier under the protection of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs).
As we mark World Malaria Day 2025, we join the global call to "Accelerate the fight against malaria for a more equitable world." In Sierra Leone, where malaria remains one of the leading causes of illness and death, your generosity is making a life-saving difference. https://www.who.int/campaigns/world-malaria-day/2025
Through your ongoing contributions, we’ve been able to distribute hundreds of mosquito nets to vulnerable families. These ITNs are more than just nets—they are protective shields that dramatically reduce the risk of infection by preventing nighttime mosquito bites.
But the fight is far from over. Millions across Africa, especially children under five and pregnant women, remain at risk. With your continued help, we can reach even more communities, protect more children, and ensure health doesn’t stand in the way of education and opportunity.
Be a part of this movement—share this message and invite your friends and family to support.
