Nothing But Nets is a grassroots campaign to save lives by preventing malaria, a leading killer of children in Africa. Malaria kills over 1 million children a year. For just $10, Nothing But Nets supplies a net, distributes it to a family and educates them on its use. The United Methodist Church, along with Sports Illustrated, is a Nothing But Nets partner.
Here at Westlake UMC our members were challenged to provide one net for every member for a year. Our goal is 700 nets and we are well on our way. The children donate money through their Sunday School classes and the adults give their offering in worship or by mail. When you make a donation through The United Methodist Church 100% of the money goes to Nothing But Nets. The UMC funds administrative costs through a separate line item in their budget. If you would like to donate, mark the memo line of your check Nothing But Nets.
