Operation Safety Net
Malaria is one of the deadliest diseases impacting poor children around the world. The disease kills more than 2,000 children every day and now is the #1 killer of children in many of the places where World Vision works. Fortunately, effective and inexpensive tools are available to protect children from this killer. Your gift today will help us implement "Operation Safety Net," with an initial goal of providing three million life-saving mosquito bed nets, along with other prevention and education tools, for children and families in the hard-hit African nations of Zambia, Mozambique, Kenya and Mali. We are expanding this effort into other countries, as well.
Because of our partnership with the Against Malaria Foundation, the impact of your gift to World Vision is leveraged even farther! This partnership allows us to purchase bed nets at deeply discounted prices ... enabling us to protect many more children!
Every $6 you give will provide a long-lasting insecticide-treated bed net that will protect the life of two or more children from this deadly disease. Since these nets can be used for approximately four years, that means you will save the life of a child for only 6 cents a month! It's one of the best investments you’ll ever make!
