Malaria.com recommends the Against Malaria Foundation (AMF) to help raise money and awareness of malaria around the world. 100% of the money received by the foundation buys bed nets at the world’s lowest prices, and every donation is linked to a distribution so you can see where your net goes.
The Against Malaria Foundation was established in 2004, and in 2005 launched the first “World Swim Against Malaria” (WSM), in which more than 250,000 people swam to help raise funds to fight malaria. 100% of the US$1.3 million raised through the event purchased 270,000 long lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) which are now being distributed to protect 540,000 (mainly) children from biting insects when they sleep at night.
Organize Your Own Fund-raising Event
On the AMF website, you can create your own webpage so people can sponsor you to do whatever it is you want to, whether baking cakes, roller-skating, pogo-sticking, baked bean eating or something entirely different.
