Distributed by Project Restore

Project Restore was organized with the goal of joining in the fight to bring about change in these global issues. We believe that what is broken or damaged, neglected, forgotten, or impoverished has value and beauty. It's worth restoring. It can be whole, beautiful, esteemed, and rich once again.

LLINs

What is a Long-Lasting Insecticidal Net (LLIN)?

An LLIN is a mosquito net impregnated with insecticide.

The insecticide is cleverly bound within the fibres that make up the netting and is 'slow released' over a 4-5 year period. Hence 'long lasting'.

Malaria is a significant problem here. The local clinic nurses report malaria is the biggest killer in the area. The clinic doesn’t currently have the capability to test for malaria. They refer patients to Kampala, which is about an hour's drive from the village, although villagers do not have vehicles and very few can afford a taxi or the bus fare to go for testing.

1,800 nets will be distributed to the Parish of BUSUKUMA and its sub-villiages, Busukuma, Naggamba, Namulonge and Seeta to achieve blanket coverage of all sleeping spaces.
