Malaria is deadly, preventable, treatable and beatable disease that kills more than 500,000 people each year. Ninety percent of these deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa.
Every 60 seconds, a child in Africa dies of Malaria
The United Methodist Church has committed to raising $75 million over three years to change these statistics through Imagine No Malaria (INM).
INM is a movement to make real change in the world. In cities and villages across Africa, the United Methodist church is working to bring hope to the hopeless and empower the powerless.
Long-lasting insecticide-treated bed nets are the simplest, most cost-effective way to prevent malaria. One bed net costs $10. Achieving a sustainable victory over malaria means providing prevention, education, communication and treatment.
Proceeds go towards purchasing insecticide-treated bed nets in Africa.
