Young children are the most vulnerable to malaria — and thanks to you, more of them are sleeping safely under the protection of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (ITNs).
In Sierra Leone, malaria remains one of the leading causes of illness and death among children under five. Your support has provided families with young children with mosquito nets - lifesaving barriers that dramatically reduce the risk of malaria by preventing nighttime bites, when transmission is at its highest.
Thank you for helping protect these children, giving them the chance to stay healthy, attend school, and enjoy childhood without the constant threat of disease.
With your continued support, we can reach even more families and ensure health challenges never stand in the way of opportunity.
GivingTuesday Is Coming! From Dec. 2 at 12 a.m. to Dec. 3 at 12 p.m. EST, donations made through GlobalGiving will be boosted by bonus funds — meaning your gift will go even further in protecting young children from malaria.
Join us on GivingTuesday. Help safeguard even more lives.
Thank you for standing with these children and helping build a healthier, more hopeful future.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Amy & the Develop Africa Team
