With the support of Ben Schiff at Amity High School, we distributed 30 mosquito bed nets last year. We found in this town that there were many homes that were left out of the distribution. Move to Matter raised money to help the remaining families in this village. Lillian helped us distribute these nets to numerous people in her village. These nets literally save lives and protect locals from mosquitos.
So many people, in not just Kenya, but other parts of Africa can suffer from Malaria, a possibly fatal infection that causes fever, chills and nausea. Malaria is transmitted through the bite of mosquitoes. A large majority of Kenyans suffer from this infection without net protection and the ability to purchase medicine that can save them. These nets will provide protection over their beds for locals as they sleep at night. Thank you Lillian and thank you Ben Schiff for being a special part in helping other children and families.
Approximately 60 children and families were helped through this program.
