NothingButNets.net has been nominated for a Webby Award

Nothing But Nets

The UN Foundation has been working with the UN to fight malaria for years. But it was a column that Rick Reilly wrote about malaria in Sports Illustrated--and thousands of letters and donations from people like you--that led to the creation the Nothing But Nets campaign.

The reaction to Reilly's 815 words made clear that thousands of people were ready to help the million children dying unnecessarily each year of malaria. And so Nothing But Nets was born.

Already, groups as diverse as the NBA and the United Methodist Church have joined the campaign. Now, we're asking you to help spread the word about Nothing But Nets, and how easy it is to protect children from malaria with bednets.

You can save a family. Your church, school, or team can save a village. Together, we can cover Africa with lifesaving bednets.

NothingButNets.net has been nominated for a Webby Award

We've got great news! Last week, NothingButNets.net was nominated for a Webby Award - the online equivalent of an Emmy or Oscar - for best charitable website.

Webby Award winners get widespread media coverage and significant web traffic. More traffic means more donations of nets, and voting is one more way you can help spread the word about malaria, and save lives in Africa.

The People's Voice Award allows people like you to vote for the winners. Right now we're in second place. Click here to vote for nets!

Our fellow nominees are great organizations with great sites, but there's something special about us: you. Our website saves lives. With your help, it's become a powerful weapon in the fight against malaria, helping deliver over 500,000 bed nets to Africa, and we think that's worth celebrating.

Please take a minute to vote by clicking here. And after you're done, please forward this to as many friends and family members as you can.

Voting closes April 27, so act fast!

Thanks for all your work - we couldn't do it without you, but together we can cover a continent!
