We’re busy preparing to host advocates from around the country this April.
Will you be one of them?

I’m thrilled to tell you about our major event to end malaria coming up soon, April 21 and 22 in Washington, D.C.  We’re calling it the Action Summit to End Malaria, our first-ever event to bring people from across the country together to advocate for an end to this horrific disease.

Malaria was eradicated in the United States 60 years ago.  And now it’s time for the rest of the world!  Tragically, malaria is still a leading cause of death for children around the world. With enough focused attention, we could be the generation that actually does away with a disease that has killed generations of people – many of them children under five.

So join us this April in Washington, D.C. We will train advocates from across the country to use their voice to draw awareness and drive change around a cause. Targeting community, business, church and school leaders across the country, the Action Summit has been underwritten to provide a low-cost, high-impact event experience.

We’ll hear from a friend in Zambia who knows the threat of malaria first-hand, from a leader in the Administration and from a child advocate and pastor from Dallas, TX with a passion for tackling poverty and injustice.

In addition, the event includes training for face-to-face meetings with elected leaders, a Night of Nets event (a model of an artistic, experiential, interactive evening gathering anyone can host in their church/community) and an afternoon of outside-the-box creative activism opportunities near the nation’s capital.

Let’s join forces to descend on Capitol Hill and let our legislators know that we won’t remain silent while more than 2,000 children die every day from this preventable disease.

The means to end malaria is cheap and available, but we need your voice to make it a reality.

I look forward to meeting all of you, hearing your stories, and using our voices together to make a difference.  As the date approaches, I will be sharing updates for this exciting event. I hope to see you there!
