That’s right! Songstress Mandy Moore has joined the United Nations Foundation’s Nothing But Nets campaign in the effort to save lives from being lost to a preventable disease – malaria. Did you know that every 30 seconds, a child dies from malaria? Read on to hear what Moore has to say about saving lives in Central Africa. Plus, what’s Facebook got to do with it?

“Insecticide-treated bed nets are one of easiest ways to protect families from malaria-carrying mosquitoes,” Moore shares. Nothing But Nets is designed to distribute millions of these nets across 15 African countries. The goal: ending malaria-induced deaths by 2015. Moore is inviting her fans to join the fight- by joining a live broadcast on Facebook on August 12, 2 pm Eastern Time. She will join experts from Nothing But Nets and Population Services International (PSI) for a “Town Hall” type discussion.
