Insecticide treated net arriving at our office in Amanful, Cape Coast, Ghana

We are glad to announce that we have purchased over 400 insecticide treated bed nets. We would like to take this time to thank the people of Japan especially Nigatti Sports for raising over two thousand dollars to purchase the nets. The net will be use for free distribution for our ongoing malaria prevention and education campaign. We are extremely excite for this good fortune as many children are loosing their lives in the communities we work with due to malaria related deaths. We are optimistic that the nets will reduce infant mortality as well as protect pregnant women. We will keep you updated as we carry on this project. We are also appealing to all good people out there to come to our assistance in combating malaria in Ghana. This is a collective effort by all to bring an end to this menace.
