Other Projects
Winter blanket project
During the cold season we aim to
distribute blankets to the poor. A simple blanket could save many lives.
In our travels we have seen many without shelter or the basic needs for
keeping warm. There are lots of people that need a simple blanket. We aim
to distribute FREE blankets every year.
Donate £25 for 5 blankets which
will help a family of five.
Mosquito net project
Mosquito is a killer as it causes
malaria. Malaria is Africa's biggest killer as well as many parts of
Asia. A typical mosquito net can be shared by three to four children.
Did you know..

to malaria.

a result of malaria during pregnancy.

- Malaria is more common in poor and malnourished people, but
spreads very quickly due to socio-economic status.
- Malaria kills more people than AIDS.
A mosquito net is a good way forward to help stop being bitten by
mosquito. The cheap and effective way to beat the mosquitos is to buy a
nt. The cost of a mosquito is about £10 but this amount is still
far too much for a poor family.
We aim to provide mosquito nets to people who need it most in Asia
and Africa.
Please DONATE £10 for a pair of
mosquito nets and help us fight
malaria. A single net can help save up to four children from malaria.
Much more to come...
As time and funding allows, we aim
to have as many smaller projects like these which will help millions of
people.
