Have you heard about our partnership with Camp Broadway? In March, we announced the Camp Broadway Challenge, a national initiative inviting multi-talented youth, ages 10-17, to create an original work of art themed around our mission to “Send a Net. Save a Life.”

Last week, Nothing But Nets took a road trip to the beautiful town of Davidson, North Carolina, for an exciting few days of events with champions, partners, and supporters. We got to hang out with Rick Reilly, sip Summit Coffee’s new Bzzz Blend, and celebrate our supporters at a special dinner hosted at Davidson College.

Some of the best champions of Nothing But Nets make a business out of being creative. Here are some of the ways our partners are creating for nets this summer:

My son Leo turns 3 years old this month, and when I asked him what he wanted to do for it, he said “help kids.”

For fifth grader, Arnav Bindra, the answer was easy and was not found on a shelf. He decided that he wanted to donate his birthday to Nothing But Nets. Rather than a toy to add to his collection, Arnav asked his friends be life savers.

As basketball season comes to a close, 5th grader Kyle von Seeburg has shown that nets are crucial, both on and off the court.

This past World Malaria Day (April 25), retired professional soccer player Jared Montz organized his second-annual nationwide Juggle-a-thon to raise awareness and funds for Nothing But Nets.

Our work wouldn’t be as strong as it is without the help of our partners, and this summer’s cross-country BzzzTour is a great example of that collaboration.  Junior Chamber International (JCI) spearheaded the BzzzTour, and on many stops along the way, worked closely with representatives from the United Nations Association (UNA) and the United Methodist Church (UMC) to make these stops a success.

Did you know that recyclable bottles and aluminum cans can buy bed nets? This is a concept Mei Mei Tercek, Maddie Tirella, Bella Barber, and Tiffany Kim developed in their Beverly Hills, CA neighborhood.

Today is International Youth Day! Saving lives does not always require a CPR certification or medical degree. Whether you are 3 years old or 93 years old, anyone can fight malaria with Nothing But Nets by sending life-saving bed nets to families in sub-Saharan Africa.
