A NO OVERHEAD non-profit organization dedicated to malaria prevention
Netlife was founded in January of 2005 by two Saint Louis University medical students,
Andrew Sherman and Jesse Matthews.
Andrew and Jesse graduated from Saint Louis University in 2008.
We do not receive any compensation for our work.
Every dollar goes to mosquito nets
What We Do:
We fundraise for the purchase of long-term insecticide treated mosquito nets.
We travel to the Kedougou region of Senegal.
We distribute mosquito nets to villagers in need.
Why:
Malaria kills 1 million people a year.
90% of those killed by malaria live in sub-saharan Africa.
Mosquito nets are the best way to prevent malaria.
