Baraka Community Partnerships is supporting the villagers of Kasalu, in the Chikumbi region of Zambia, in helping them combat malaria. Currently, no other organization is involved in directly helping the people of Kasalu combat this life threatening disease. However, there are plenty of initiatives run by community volunteers in the village to educate the local population about the dangers of Malaria. There are about 230 household in the village - our goal is to provide one net for each.

Mosquito nets are the first line of defense against the disease. They are an inexpensive but effective tool. Nets are only $4.00/£2.60 each - so however small your donation, it will make a difference.

Malaria season starts in October - please act soon. Your generosity may save a life.

Donate here and feel free to pass on this information to your friends and family:
