World Malaria Day 2011

$25,000.00 Was donated to Drive Against Malaria during the run-up to World Malaria Day 2011. The cheque was presented by ExxonMobil Public & Government Affairs Manager Benelux Remko Kruithof. Thanks to the 110 runners from Belgium & Holland in the "Antwerp 10 miles", DAM's campaigns will be extended with more children being tested, treated and protected against malaria in Cameroon and Central African Republic during the next mission July 2011 - February 2012.

RRI Support malaria fight SW Cameroon

Limbe based "Rig Repair International" financed malaria screening along the coastline of SW Cameroon in Njonji Village, Debundscha, Isobi and Idenau. Testing was followed up with the 3 day course, combination therapy "Coartem" to cure malaria. Long lasting mosquito nets were given along with education on the best ways to prevent malaria by sleeping under an impregnated net. The people were tested over a two day period by the DAM team working with JCI in each location. This insured everyone had the opportunity of the free test & treatment along with up to 2 mosquito nets per household. These nets can prevent malaria for up to 4 years.

Sanga River Central African Republic

Drive Against Malaria are working with the Ba’aka communities (Pygmy’s) close to the town of Bayanga on the Sanga River Central African Republic to combat malaria.
Severn sites have been set up around Baynga to diagnose and treat malaria as well as train local doctors, medics and teams of volunteers to use RDT’s and ACT’s. 710 women & children under 10 have so far been tested for malaria.
Thank you to Sanga Lodge and WWF for your support.

Mount Cameroon Project

Mount Cameroon Project underway. We are testing children under the age of ten for the malaria parasite in villages at the base of Mt. Cameroon. Those who are malaria positive are given a 3 day course of ACT's to treat and cure malaria. Each patient is also given a long lasting mosquito net with information about malaria.

General Assembly New York

David Robertson at the 65th General Assembly New York, where Nick Clegg pledged that Britain will lead the fight against malaria today as he announced a £500 million fund to tackle one of the world's biggest killers of children. Speaking at a UN summit in New York, the Deputy Prime Minister said he was increasing UK aid from its current £150 million in a bid to halve deaths in 10 African countries.

Mount Cameroon Project sponsored by Land Rover.

Land Rover Netherlands together with all 20 Dutch dealers donated funds for DAM’s Mt Cameroon Project. Long Lasting Mosquito nets with training will be given to each village around the base of one of Africa's largest volcanic mountain. At the peek due to low temperatures with snowfall there are no mosquito, yet some of the wettest areas of the world lay at the base where malaria-transmitting mosquito’s thrive. In the jungles around the base, malaria rates are incredibly high and the health facilities are either run down or don't exist. Roads are incredibly poor and many communities can only be reached by a Land Rover or foot. The cheque for 50,000.00 euro was handed over by Marc Bienemann, directeur Land Rover Nederland, en Johan de Koning namens de Land Rover dealerorganisatie.
