It’s time to kick off the 17th stop on our U.S. City Tour – and this time we’re headed to the Bay Area to spread the buzz!
Starting on September 13, we’ll be meeting our local supporters (that’s you!) and partners, and hosting some great events for everyone to get involved in. Check out the lineup below. We hope you will come out and see us!
- Nothing But Nets Rally: We invite you to come out and sign a large Message of Hope that will travel with us on our next net distribution trip to Africa! If more than 200 people sign the Message of Hope, a generous donor will send 1,000 nets to refugees in Africa. Help us unlock the funds for nets! We’ll also proclaim it Nothing But Nets Week in San Francisco with partners and local supporters.
When: Wednesday, Sept. 16, 5:00-5:30pm
