Our reasons
Never before has there been such a surge in global support for ending deaths by malaria. Governments, charities, businesses and faith groups are all coming together around this momentous goal.
Preventing malaria is now easier than ever, with better bed nets [link] that repel and kill mosquitoes, costing just £5 to cover a mother and baby, or a brother and sister and which last for for up to five years. Over 100 million bed nets have already been pledged by the eight richest countries in the world. We need to see that pledge delivered and we need more nets still , but we need more, as well as treatment and education.
- We believe that every child’s life matters.
- We believe that nobody should die from malaria - thisan easily preventable and treatable disease.
- We believe we can end malaria deaths by 2015.
