Our Contributions
With your printer cartridges, we've been able to donate the equivalent of
over 127,000 anti-malaria nets!
These have been distributed in Togo, Papua New Guinea, Uganda, Zambia, Ghana, Malawi & Congo.
Why Anti-Malaria Nets?
A net is the most effective means of preventing malaria, and produced and distributed at the cost of approximately $2 USD per net.
So, just a single in-demand empty cartridge could purchase 1 anti-mosquito net, and an unused cartridge in good condition could buy more than 10!
Why This Charity?
100% of the value of donations that the AMF receives goes toward buying and distributing these nets, as operating costs are kept to a bare minimum and covered by corporate sponsors.
On top of that, the AMF are one of the world's most effective charities — making a greater measured impact on health and lives saved than almost all other charities on a per-dollar basis.
The Life You Can Save — who assess how you can most effectively save lives with your donations — have rated them in their 4 best charities for 9 years in a row. GiveWell have done the same.
