World Swim Against Malaria

Friday August 31, 2007
The Against Malaria Foundation (AMF) launched and ran World Swim Against Malaria (WSM) on 3 Dec 2005. More than 250,000 people swam and fundraised, with 100% of the $1.3m raised used to purchase 270,000 long lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) which are now being distributed to protect 540,000 (mainly) children from biting insects when they sleep at night.
