Compassion has a Malaria Prevention program called
Bite Back
Malaria is a preventable, treatable disease, yet a child dies of malaria every 30 seconds. This can happen when malaria is not treated, and cerebral malaria develops in as quickly as two days. Once this happens, a child can slip into a coma and eventually die.
Families in poverty need help dealing with this potentially fatal disease. Many cannot afford insecticide-treated mosquito nets or medical treatment.
I love this video Compassion put out....
All it takes to prevent malaria is a net...and Compassion is providing them quite affordably.
For more information about this initiative, you can visit Compassion's website HERE or the Bite Back website HERE.
