April 25 marks World Malaria Day – a day to recognize the important progress we have made as a global community in combating this deadly disease, while also raising awareness and support to continue our work.

As a Malaria Fellow through the United Nations Foundation’s Nothing But Nets campaign and the Religios Action Center, I am responsible for creating awareness about Nothing But Nets and malaria on American University’s campus.

Today we have a great story about champion Michael Krebs Hesse, from Pearland, Texas! Spurred by a class about being part of a community, Michael created a community service project to help Nothing But Nets.

Thanks to thousands of supporters like you, we met our World Malaria Day goal to send 25,000 bed nets! Every $10 raised means a family in Africa will sleep safely and soundly, knowing that they are protected from malaria.

Nothing But Nets’ partners have just the gift that she will love, and that won’t go into the junk drawer by June.  Plus, each of these gifts makes a difference in the life of a mother in sub-Saharan Africa, where malaria takes the life of a child every 60 seconds.

The Jack Jackter Intermediate School from Colchester, Connecticut is a Higher Order Thinking (HOT) School, aimed at developing global awareness and helping students to see how they can make a difference in the world. This year, the topic chosen by students and teachers was malaria and its impact in Africa.

Bleyl Middle School sixth-grade students Cristy Vizcaino and Kesyia Foster found out there is a tasty way to fight malaria!

Out of everything I have done on campus as a Malaria Fellow with Nothing But Nets and the Religious Action Center, the most successful endeavor has been my advocacy work.

Malaria has threatened the U.S. Military since the Revolutionary War. In the 20th century, the U.S. Armed Forces lost more casualties to malaria than bullets. This Memorial Day, Nothing But Nets, remembers all of our service men and women who have been killed by malaria and recognizes the Military’s contributions to malaria research and prevention efforts.

Summer is upon us, and for Nothing But Nets, this doesn’t mean picnics and fireworks – it means the start of our BzzzTour!
