50 children need mosquito nets.

Ronald reports welcome rain after a long dry season, and the school is preparing gardens for planting. He says the rain also brings concern about malaria.

He reports that Gloria, pictured here, was taken to a hospital in Kampala with malaria using the school car. She is recovering.

Ronald asks for 50 mosquito nets for children’s beds. He estimates $10 per good-quality net, or $500 for all 50. Nets help protect children from mosquito bites while they sleep.

Ronald plans to purchase the nets in Kampala. Donations are handled on Zeffy.
