NETwork Against Malaria

YummiesforSensitiveTummies — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 12:04:03 -0600

We raise money to purchase mosquito nets in Uganda. These nets reduce those affected by malaria and save many lives. Malaria affects between 300 and 600 million people each year. That is more than tuberculosis, AIDS, measles, and leprosy combined. Of that, 3,000 children die of malaria everyday, one child every 30 seconds.

Uganda has the most reported cases of malaria of all countries. 93% of Uganda's population is at risk for malaria. 30% of Ugandan children under 5 die of malaria each year. Where malaria nets are heavily used, cases of malaria were lowerd by 90%.
