Clay Aiken, UNICEF and Malaria Prevention

Clay Aiken and UNICEF team up once again to remind of us the importance of treated mosquito netting could be the difference between life and death in Malaria infected areas.

For instance, did you know ~

A child dies of malaria every 30 seconds in Africa. At least one million infants and children under five in sub-Saharan Africa die each year from the mosquito-borne disease. While it is one of the greatest threats to human and economic welfare on earth, malaria is both preventable and treatable if addressed properly and quickly.


For more information, click on the video below featuring UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Clay Aiken discussing the benefit of this treated netting and how important it is in saving the lives of children on a global basis:

Clay is relentless to save children.
I hope we all save a child from malaria -
It seems like such a simple thing to do to save a child - buy a net

Thanks

SueReu,

Great news that malaria deaths can be eradicated. Clay's UNICEF video is the perfect tool for spreading the news.

Your blog is helping to get out the word, too.
