Malaria Is Spreading From Poor Sleeping Conditions But We’re Not Giving Up
Peace Makers, Malaria, Mattresses
Hello Peace Makers,
This week, we got heartbreaking news.
Four girls and two boys have come down with malaria.
This is directly linked to the cold, damp floors they were sleeping on and poor sleeping conditions - without mattresses, without warmth, without protection.
We’ve moved fast to get help. But we’re still short.
We need to finish providing mattresses and be urgent with malaria treatment.

I want to celebrate how much You all are helping us get there.
Thanks to your rapid support some of our children are now sleeping off the floor.
You’ve made that possible and it’s working.
But a few are still waiting. And now, some are sick.
We can’t let this spiral. Not when we’re this close.
Here’s how you can give:
$125 fully sponsors one child: mattress, blanket, covering supplies, and access to clean water
$60 = Mattress
$35 = Blanket
$30 = Clean water repair fund (per child impact)
Any gift helps restore dignity, comfort, and health
$500 to cover malaria meds for 6 kids
The storm hasn’t passed. But neither has our hope.
Thank you for believing in these children.
Let’s finish this together.
With urgency and gratitude,
BJ Thompson
President, Build a Better Us
