Tee Shirt Update

OK. Here is a bit more information, although its all a bit preliminary so I'm not sure how helpful it is going to be.

As to the name of the project, I have no idea. Make it up. Or, if that is too much work, call it....CDOTAME-Catholic Diocese of Torit's Anti-Malarial Extravaganza.

The tee shirts have to get across any of the following ideas:
  • You always have to use the net, every single night for the entire year
  • Nets will protect your children and your family from dying of malaria
  • If everyone uses a net, mosquitos will start dying in your area-therefore if you are using one and your neighbor isnt, you are still at risk.
  • Pregnancy treatments of malaria can help save lives. Go to your local ANC for nets and medicines.
  • Mosquitos are annoying. It is nicer to sleep without them.

The project is being implemented mostly by CDoT. It is hoping to get nets to everyone in Eastern Equatoria-one net for every two people. We are also getting treatment for pregnant ladies and Home based fever management for children under five.

Lets see if that helps.

Just out of curiousity, where does your new quotation at the top of the blog come from?
