🎉 **This weekend is my birthday (Jul 20th)!** 🎉

This year, I’m celebrating by raising funds to **protect kids from Malaria**- a preventable disease that kills more than 1,000 children under the age of five every day. I’ll repeat: **1,000 kids EVERY. SINGLE. DAY**.

**I believe that every child— no matter where they’re from or what they look like— deserves an equal chance** to grow up, pursue their passion, fall in love, start a family.

**[The Against Malaria Foundation](https://www.againstmalaria.com/Default.aspx)** has a proven track record of saving and improving lives in **one of the most effective ways possible**. Every $5 donated manufactures and delivers a potentially life-saving bednet for 2 kids to sleep under, thereby preventing malaria-carrying mosquitos from harming them.

**What impact can you have?**

- $26 -> protects 10 kids for 3 years
- $50 -> protects 20 kids for 3 years
- $1,000 -> protects 400 kids for 3 years!!! 

**Why AMF?**

- **Recommended by** [GiveWell](https://www.givewell.org/)- the leading charity evaluator in Global Health
- **100% of donations go directly to their programs**- all overhead is covered by independent donors
- **Cost effectiveness**- every $5,500 prevents the death of a child (one of the cheapest interventions in the world)

Join me in making this birthday truly special by donating $26 (or more ;p) and helping to give every child the opportunity they deserve.

Together, we can give every child the fighting chance that they deserve. ❤️

Thank you and lots of love 🌟 #BirthdayFundraiser #ProtectKids #EveryChildMatters #Charity

Nando's 26th Birthday Fundraiser

One of GiveWell's top charities for the past several years, AMF provides anti-malarial bednets to people in need. 

From Givewell: 
What do they do? AMF (againstmalaria.com) provides funding for long-lasting insecticide-treated net (LLIN) distributions (for protection against malaria) in developing countries. (More)

Does it work? There is strong evidence that distributing LLINs reduces child mortality and malaria cases. AMF conducts post-distribution surveys of completed distributions to determine whether LLINs have reached their intended destinations and how long they remain in good condition. AMF's post-distribution surveys have generally found positive results but have some methodological limitations. (More)

What do you get for your dollar? We estimate that the cost to purchase and distribute an AMF-funded net is $4.95, or $4.65 excluding in-kind contributions from governments. The numbers of deaths averted and other benefits of distributing LLINs are a function of a number of difficult-to-estimate factors, which we discuss in detail below. (More)

Is there room for more funding? We believe that AMF is likely to be constrained by funding. We estimate that AMF could use up to an additional $37.8 million to support LLIN distributions that will occur between now and late 2023. 

AMF is recommended because of its:

Focus on a program with excellent evidence of effectiveness and cost-effectiveness.
Processes for ensuring that nets reach their intended recipients and monitoring whether they remain in homes and in good condition over the long-term.
Room for more funding – we believe AMF will be able to use additional funds to deliver additional nets.
Transparency – AMF shares significant information about its work with us and we are able to closely follow and understand its work.
