Malaria is one of the main causes of child deaths
Almost 1 in every 10 worldwide. €14 can help end the nightmare of malaria. For almost a million children under the age of five it’s a nightmare from which they never awaken.
The single most effective means of preventing infection is not drugs, but a simple net. €14 will buy 3 insecticide treated nets that will protect a family of 6 for up to five years. They are immediately available, and they save children’s lives – hundreds of thousands of them.
UNICEF Ireland wants to send 100,000 nets to malaria-infected areas.
