Churches are often the only functioning institutions in these communities located “at the end of the road.” Their presence and power unite people to bring about lasting change for the whole community.
By drawing on this trusted delivery system—churches and faith-based groups— vulnerable people are reached with life-saving nets and other services.
NetsforLife® serves people in need regardless of faith affiliation.
NetsforLife® successfully brings together the comprehensive and complementary strengths of corporations, foundations, NGOs and faith-based organizations invested in Africa.
By combining these forces, NetsforLife® reaches more communities and saves more lives.
NetsforLife® works to instill a “net culture”—a community-wide understanding of the protective value of nets and the right way to use and maintain them.
When a net culture is in place, people know how to prevent malaria, when to seek medical treatment and how to access effective treatment. The result: less sickness, fewer deaths and stronger communities.
NetsforLife®’s integrated model to malaria prevention focuses
on:
There are an estimated 250 million cases of malaria each year, resulting in nearly 800,000 deaths. The majority of these deaths are children younger than five years old. Join us in the fight against malaria in Africa. Give today.

NetsforLife® is a partnership of corporations, foundations, nongovernmental groups, and faith-based organizations working to fight malaria in Africa.
