Bed net

There is no need to consider whether my child might die from malaria, as nearly 900,000 children do every year, simply for lack of a $10 bed net to protect them from parasite-carrying mosquitoes.
On a recent trip to Zambia, I was reminded of the devastating impact these daily threats pose on children, women, families, and of the hope of disease being averted when their needs are not ignored. There I met a widow with ten children, who told of her great heartache at losing a child to malaria and the painful trade-off she makes purchasing food for her surviving children instead of a bed net to protect them. I joined the community-based caregivers we partner with who were able to provide enough bed nets to protect her children along with essential education and training. This intervention costs just a few dollars, more than many impoverished families like this can bear alone. Even World Vision and other agencies can't singlehandedly cover the millions more like them. In partnership, the nations of the world must do more
