Non-net costs

Non-net costs are all costs associated with a net distribution excluding the cost of the nets themselves. Non-net costs include: all shipping, pre-distribution, distribution and post-distribution costs. Pre-distribution activities include establishing accurate net need per household based on a count of sleeping spaces and existing, useable LLINs. Post-distribution activities include surveys, at 6-month intervals for a period of 3-4 years, of 5% of the nets distributed to assess net use and condition.

AMF funding non-net costs can remove the final barrier to a distribution proceeding and avoid potential lengthy delays, of up to a year, given the ideal timing of a distribution relative to other events, for example a rainy season. The funding for non-net costs does NOT come from public donations to AMF; 100% of donations from the public buys nets. Non-net costs are covered by donor/s who have arranged with us to donate for this specific purpose.
