Mothers stood for over six hours in the hot sun waiting for a $5 mosquito net?



HOW LONG WOULD YOU WAIT?



Every 30 seconds an African child under the age of five dies from malaria. If you knew it would save your child's life—you would wait. For only $5, four children can be protected from malaria for five years. That’s only $1.25 for five years! MaNdate 7 is coming this Christmas 2009. Won’t you help these new refugees that arrived in the camp? They are victims of war and came with only what they could carry. They cannot afford a net without your help.
