From the euphoria of yesterday to something like this.
As many of you know, I'm a big backer of charity - specifically things that help Africa. And today is WORLD MALARIA DAY - a day organised to demonstrate just how much of the world is affected by the deadly disease, and a day organised to help raise money to eradicate it.
So, where do you all think of instantly when the world 'malaria' is mentioned? Africa. But no, thats not just it.... Did you know that actually, South America has the second largest amount of deaths on the planet due to malaria? Or that China actually have deaths due to the disease? Mexico, India, Indonesia, even Australia.
So, if you can, buy a malaria net. They cost about £5 - but that £5 can help save a life. A little can do a lot.
WORLD MALARIA DAY, you are the Day Dedicatee for Sunday 25th April 2010.
