We are absolutely thrilled to have recently been awarded a US$22.8m grant by Good Ventures, the San Francisco based philanthropic foundation.
We see this grant as transformational for AMF
It is the largest grant AMF has ever received and it will make a huge impact on fighting malaria, saving many lives, reducing illness and boosting economic growth.
It comes at an exciting time for AMF as we work to expand the scale of the projects we support to multiple millions of nets at a time, including helping countries close net gaps so that entire populations are protected.
Every single donation is important, no matter how large, in the fight against malaria
There is a huge gap between the funding available and the net need. We never forget that every $3 buys a net and protects two people when they sleep at night, potentially from the bite of a malaria-carrying mosquito.
There are now over 133,000 donations to AMF. Together we have built a community that will keep the fight against malaria high on the international agenda. We are aiming to secure a further US$50+m for the projects we are currently considering. Aside the occasional marvellous large donation, the overwhelming number of AMF’s donations are from donors giving less than $200 and we are incredibly grateful for every one of them.
