I recently learned about the nothing but nets organization to help stop malaria in Africa from James T's post. I thought it might be interesting so I looked more into the situation. When you go Nothingbutnets.net you can save a family by donating just 10 up to 1000 dollars so they can receive net. However, donating is not the only way they are earning money. In North Carolina Brian and Tim Helfrich hosted an event for athletes to run a four mile obstacle course to raise money. The race raised more then 3100 dollars for the charity! Will you donate?
