goal
My name is Bethany and I am 8 years old. One thing that I have a hard time with is mosquito bites. They are not fun and can cause disease and death if the mosquitoes are infected.
In Asia, people get sick and die from malaria and other diseases when an infected mosquito bites them. And this happens every day!
So for my 8th Birthday (4/23), I wanted to help protect people from this sickness and death. I can't do it by myself but you can help.
Will you help them? For as little as $10 you can provide this kind of protection by providing a mosquito net. I would like to provide 200 of these nets to people in Asia. That is a lot, but God is able to do huge things! And they will not only receive protection from mosquitoes, but will hear about Jesus' Love as well.
Thank You :-)
Mosquitoes are not only a nuisance—they are the deadliest animal in the world. By spreading diseases like malaria, dengue fever, yellow fever, and encephalitis, they kill over 600,000 people every year. Another 200 million people are incapacitated for days at a time.
If a person is given a mosquito net, they can wrap their bed with it. This allows them to sleep without being bitten. This reduces exposure to mosquitoes and decreases the chances of catching diseases, especially among children.
Every $10 donated is enough for GFA to provide a mosquito net to a family in need. This will be given in regions most impacted by mosquitos.
