A net for her and her little ones

Dear Prasad,

Catherine is a 39-year-old mother of  four children. She lives in the Kazigo B Village of Uganda, a village that Uganda Village Project (UVP) launched this year in June. Her husband is a farmer and she sells vegetables on the roadside to make ends meet.

When asked why she bought a net, she said, “I have bought nets because this area has many mosquitoes and I want to keep my children from getting bitten by the mosquitoes, as they cause malaria. Through the education sessions UVP has had I have learnt my little ones are most vulnerable, my two and four-year-old kids, therefore they now sleep under the new net.”

“I am very grateful that UVP and their donors sell nets at a subsidized affordable price. Thank you very much.”

Thank you, Prasad, for helping to keep Catherine and her family healthy!
