Mandy Moore

Singer, songwriter, and actress Mandy Moore is joining Nothing But Nets in the movement to end malaria. As an ambassador for PSI (Population Services International), Mandy has traveled to Southern Sudan, the Central African Republic, and Cameroon to help distribute life-saving bed nets, and has seen the effects of malaria firsthand. Her experience inspired her to raise awareness to end malaria deaths.

Of her trip to Sudan, Mandy said, “Handing out the first of these nets was a truly humbling experience. I realize that there is tremendous road we have to travel to make sure that all people – especially children under five – live healthy and productive lives.”
