Netting Nations is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to combat the global spread of malaria through the purchase and distribution insecticide-treated mosquito nets (ITNs). ITNs are the most cost-effective method of preventing the spread of malaria, which kills between 1 and 2 million men, women and children world-wide each year -- 90% of those deaths occurring in sub-Sahara Africa where a child dies every 30 seconds, and the equivalent of 7 jumbo jets full of children die each day.

ITNs are the most cost-effective method of preventing malaria because:

• Each ITN, on average, costs between $5-10. Statistically speaking, for every 30 ITNs distributed, one life is saved!
• An ITN lasts between 3-5 years and does not need to be retreated during the course of its lifetime.
• Each ITN, when properly used, can protect between 2 and 3 individuals.
• Where ITNs have been successfully implemented, such as in eastern Madagascar, the malaria infection rate was decreased by 90%. Further, when the malaria infection rate is decreased, hospital beds, staff and money are freed up to combat the remaining two of the "Big Three"—AIDS/HIV and Tuberculosis.

Netting Nations is you and I, not as individuals, but as a collective whole. This organization has as its tenets compassion, desire, perseverance and selflessness manifested through action.

Although malaria is a formidable foe, with your help, a profound difference can and will be made...net-by-net, life-by-life.

Every waterfall begins with one drop of rain. Become a rainmaker in combating the global epidemic of malaria.
