This is Asali.
She lives in Tanzania. Her children keep suffering with malaria, they get it again and again. When one child is better, another falls sick.
Asali and her family should not be suffering like this, especially when the solution is so simple. You can be a part of this solution, right now, by making a gift today. 
AMREF works hard 365 days a year, not just at Christmas, to ensure that people have access to good quality health care.
Our health workers are working in Asali's village saving lives right now.
- They are teaching the community how to prevent diseases like malaria, they are distributing drugs and bed nets and they are educating motehrs so they report to a health centre when the signs of malaria and other diseases are spotted in their children.
Why not support AMREF’s vital work this Christmas by purchasing an AMREF gift kit and help us bring better health to Africa.

We have developed four gift kits as illustrations as they contain items that are examples of our work and can change the life of someone living in one of the world’s poorest countries. You can trust AMREF to use your generous donation to bring better health to the people of Africa, wherever the need is greatest.
