Deliver The Net Game

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.

The challenge: race the sun and hand out as many insecticide-treated bed nets as you can to African families. The more virtual nets you deliver – before the mosquitoes come out – the more lives you save.

Want to do more?

We need you and your NETwork. Together we’ve raised enough to send nearly a million nets to Africa, but we still have a long way to go to cover the continent. Start your own Netraiser Team and get your friends and family on board in the fight against malaria.

Please note this is a game, and illustrates only a portion of the complex system in place to ensure bed nets are delivered and families are educated on the proper usage. Click here for more information on how we work with the UN through the Measles Initiative to deliver the nets.
