Nets to the Rescue!


Wild Hope was given a generous donation that allowed us to purchase 250 very special mosquito nets.

These nets are actually infused with a mosquito repellant so that they physically protect the area they cover while also driving other mosquitoes from the room.

Malaria is still the number one killer disease in Africa. Recent studies show a deadly link between malaria and HIV/AIDS because each disease weakens the body, making it easier to contract the other.

We were so pleased to distribute these gifts. It's always a joy to make an immediate difference :-)
