It's flu season again and with all the sniffles and snuffles on the morning train I can hardly keep from remembering that our friends in Kenya are also going through their own season of unwell, with malaria mosquitoes breeding like crazy this time of year.
Earlier this year Kenya Aid rolled out a mosquito net program providing free and low cost nets to mothers and children under 5. Reports back from MURUDEF have indicated that this program has been a great success, though we've hardly made a dent in the population and need your help to keep supplying nets to pregnant mothers and families.
The nets Kenya Aid provides are treated with insecticide for extra protection and for only a $10 donation you can help a number of families keep safe this flu season. You can donate via our secure page here - http://kenyaaid.org/donate.php - and can pay by credit card or paypal. You can even set up a monthly deduction which will, in the very near future, be tax deductible!
We all know being sick is awful. Getting malaria is worse. So please give generously to help keep Shikunga's families safe from this horrible infection that kills hundreds of thousands of children each year.
