Project Restore's Countdown to Hope relies solely on individuals and small groups to help us reach our goal of 600 mosquito nets for Uganda by November.
If you want to make a difference but don't know how, here are a few ideas:
--> Host a party, barbecue, raffle, garage sale, auction, or other event with proceeds going toward mosquito nets.
--> Substitute a net donation for your weekly Starbucks beverage or Subway sandwich. One substitution and your bank account won't notice the difference. One substitution a week and you'll have restored hope to 7 people in desperate need.
--> Set up a change jar, and near the end of October donate your collection to the mosquito net fund.
--> Take up a collection at work. Together, you and your co-workers can restore hope.
--> Ask family and friends to sponsor your own fundraising event against malaria: a walk, a swim, a fast, a basketball shootout, whatever you want. For more ideas click here.

580 Nets to Go,
