Welcome to 2024 Champions!!

We are looking forward to another impactful year of advocacy as we all unite to #BeatMalaria! As we move into this new year, we look back at 2023 with great appreciation for all your efforts in supporting life-saving malaria programs. Together we led 226 meetings with members of Congress across 41 states! Congratulations to each of you who maintained a steady drumbeat throughout 2023 in support of the U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative and The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

2024 promises to be a year where each of us will have the opportunity to take our advocacy efforts to new levels. With an election on the horizon, our respectful non-partisan engagement encourages discourse around an issue that both sides of the aisle can agree on. This year’s advocacy opportunities beyond our annual leadership summit include:

• Webinars: Webinars will continue to be hosted every two weeks. Our first webinar of the year will kick off on Monday, January 22 at 6p ET. To register for this webinar and future webinars click here.
• World Malaria Day – Week of Action (April 22-26)
  • Monday, April 22 | Join our webinar as we overview the week’s advocacy actions.
• World Mosquito Day
  • August 20 | Our team will share a social media toolkit with prepared messaging for you to post on Instagram and X. We will also distribute a petition for you to sign and share with your community. The petition will be shared via email and text message.
• September Virtual Advocacy Day
  • DATE TBD | Virtual meetings with Members of Congress. Although Summit has limited capacity, our virtual meetings are a great way of strengthening your advocacy muscles in preparation for the 2025 Leadership Summit (yes, I’m talking about 2025…sorry).
• Veteran’s Day
  • November 11 | Our team will share a social media toolkit with prepared messaging for you to post on Instagram and X. We will also distribute a petition for you to sign and share with your community. The petition will be shared via email and text message.

Advocacy is a year-round sport, and our team will continue to equip you for success each step along the way.

Despite the tremendous progress made, a child dies nearly every minute from this entirely preventable and treatable disease. That’s why it’s necessary that we keep up the steady drumbeat – year round – in the fight to beat malaria.  Each advocacy action moves us closer to progress; makes us better advocates; and prepares us to advocate in Washington D.C.

We look forward to advocating with you in the year ahead!
