“Every two minutes somewhere in the world, a child dies from malaria. Countless more suffer needlessly from this devastating — and preventable — disease.
Your gift of insecticide-treated mosquito nets is one of the most cost-effective ways to save lives.”
How this gift helps
Sleeping without a mosquito net in areas where malaria is prevalent can be deadly. Even mild cases can cause serious problems for families living in poverty. “Last year my husband, my children and I got sick with diarrhoea and malaria,” Mrs Houn told ChildFund. “I then spent a lot of money on medical expenses. I am very happy and excited to receive new mosquito nets from ChildFund Cambodia to protect me and my family from insect bites, malaria and dengue fever.”
