About Me

I am not affiliated with The Against Malaria Foundation, I am just a sponsor. My hope is to raise awareness about malaria and get more people involved in this great organization.

The Against Malaria Foundation is an organization dedicated to empowering ordinary citizens to take responsibility for eradicating Malaria - a disease that causes 3 million preventable deaths a year.

Malaria, unlike many other health issues which affect the developing world, is relatively easy to fix. Yet despite this the governments of the world have not been able to marshal the necessary resources and support. That is why we believe it is necessary to step in where governments have failed.

SUPPORT BURMA's NARGIS VICTIMS

Even before the cyclone, the World Health Organization warned that "malaria is a re-emerging public health problem" in Burma and it is now exacerbated by widespread flooding, the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes.Some officials are warning that the disease may end up killing as many as the cyclone if additional more help doesn't arrive soon."Some aid getting to Myanmar, but many efforts still stalled"
Please consider donating a bed net to our BURMA AID effort on the Against Malaria website. Each net costs $5 and 100% of all funds will be used to buy nets for Burma. "


My Interests

"Fear not, dear cousin. In madness there is great power"

WHY JOIN IN?

Malaria is the world's single largest killer of children. 1-3 million – million - people die of malaria each year. 70% of them are children under 5. So, the equivalent of 7 jumbo jets full of children die from malaria every day.

1. Every $100 you raise saves one child's life

2. 100% of the money buys long lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) , they will end up over heads and beds and we will demonstrate that has happened

3. You'll have FUN for at least 3 months!

4. It's competitive: your team might win The Malaria Cup.
