Each year, malaria afflicts approximately a half-billion people (roughly the population of the United States, Canada, and Mexico combined).
Malaria kills more than a million people per year; 90 percent of those who die are African children.
Every 30 seconds in Africa a child dies of malaria.
There are 10 new cases of malaria every second.
Malaria incapacitates people, keeping countries poor. In addition to the health burden, malaria illness and death cost Africa about $12 billion per year.

I found information about malaria and its terrible consequences, when I was looking for where and how can I help the earthquake victims in Haiti. It so astonished me that I could not calm down a long time. Clearly, the population of people die each day from diseases, accidents, from old age, this is natural, we cannot stop it. But when millions of people, and above all children, dying meaningless, simply because they do not receive a basic assistance-it’s really SHOCKING! Unlike many serious diseases, malaria is both preventable and treatable, making all deaths from malaria completely unnecessary! For comparison - each day 3,000 people dies from malaria, a Haitian earthquake killed about 200,000. That is- each day takes a small earthquake. We cannot change the nature and to protect against earthquakes, but we can stop the senseless deaths from malaria, which requires only small for each of our help. Failing African children are the same as see the children playing on the motorway and to keep on going!

“The whole world is not worthy of the child’s tears”- Fiodor Dostoevsky

How can we stop this deathly process? Prevention is achieved through:
- the use of bednets, preferably treated with an insecticide
- removing areas of water where mosquitoes breed
- house spraying with insecticide
- educating people as to the value of all of these actions to help prevent malaria
- and monitoring mosquito populations to understand which insecticides they are sensitive to
All these tactics dramatically reduce incidents of malaria. Nets are a simple, life-saving solution, but it needs our help to provide them to those in need.

When I found this incredible information, I thought about it all night and in a morning I found a solution how I can help save children from malaria deathly. I was in the process of creating the site Vitamins and Supplements and decided-  £ 1 (what is in average approximately 40% of my income and approximately 60% of my profit) from every purchase made by this site will be transferred to the Nothing But Nets, founded by the United Nations Foundation.  Nothing But Nets is a global, grassroots campaign to raise awareness and funding to combat malaria, one of the largest killers of children in Africa and provides everyone the opportunity to join the global fight against malaria by sending a net and saving a life.

I call everyone to join my initiative!  If not me, then who? If not now, then when? Together, we can cover poor kids with life-saving bed nets!

For all websites and blogs owners – no matter how tight your income is, make donations on a fixed rate for each transaction made. Join our communities and help everyone each other to promote their initiatives! My goal is very simple-to assemble the blog’s and site’s owners to a community where they come together on a simple idea- If not me, then who? If not now, then when?

Each your step will save a few lives, think about it! You must understand, that every penny it’s very important. Although it may not sound like much, the cost makes them out of reach for most people at risk of malaria, many of whom survive on less than $1 a day.
