Children Affected by Malaria

Although easily preventable, malaria is a deadly disease to those living in poverty. Among the poor, children affected by malaria are even more at risk ... a child dies from malaria every 30 seconds. Compassion is working with children affected by malaria to educate them about the disease and help prevent it from ending their lives.

Although it is most common in Africa, there are children affected by malaria in every corner of the world. Compassion is working hard to prevent the disease and give every child a chance at life.

Malaria is spread by mosquitoes and something as simple as a mosquito net can drastically reduce the chances of a child getting sick. Many children affected by malaria cannot even afford a mosquito net. That is where you come in. Your small gift can provide a mosquito net to a child who needs it and help keep her safe from getting infected.

Your gift can be the difference between life and death for children affected by malaria. Give to our malaria fund today.

Trusted Child Sponsorship Charity

Malaria is a treatable, preventable disease and yet it is taking the lives of 2,000 children every day. That's one child every 30 seconds.

You can help break the bond of poverty by sponsoring a child who lives in a country that is highly affected by malaria.
