The spring celebration & fundraiser, Stamp Out Malaria, was a great success! Thanks to the great turnout and support from the community, Project PeacePal raised over $20,000 for Stamp Out Malaria in the 2010-2011 school year. This will allow us to ship and distribute more than 4,500 mosquito nets!
LAST CHANCE TO DONATE NETS!
Didn't make it to the event? It isn't too late to donate! We can still include your mosquito net with the shipment...but don't wait another day! Donations for nets must be turned in by May 8th. This would be a great Mother's Day gift! Click this link now to donate directly to the Against Malaria Foundation.
PeacePal Board member Kasondra McCracken will arrive in Tamale, Ghana in mid-May. Working alongside PeacePal Program Director, M.A. Saaka-Dua, Kasondra will assist in education
sessions and the final distribution of nets in the Choggo Hill Top community.
Kasondra will be documenting this process with photos and video, and hopes to also provide donated cameras to children in the community so that their perspective of the net distribution can be
recorded as well. You can help! Donate your old cameras, laptops, and scanners to Project PeacePal. Your tax-deductible donation will be hand carried to Ghana, and placed in the hands of an eager child.
Come along on this adventure: follow Kasondra's blog!
