Dear Family and Friends,
In 2006, David tragically lost one of?his closest friends, Christopher Gallagher, to malaria contracted while travelling in Asia. In memory of Christy, his parents, Martin and Mary Gallagher, established the 'Christy Gallagher Memorial Malaria Fund' with Children in Crossfire to help prevent the deadly disease from claiming the lives of some of the world's poorest and most vulnerable children.
??????????????????
Donations made to the 'Malaria Fund' are used by Children in Crossfire in 3 regions of Tanzania to distribute mosquito nets to vulnerable families with children under the age of 5, as well as, funding community awareness?workshops about the prevention and treatment of malaria .
????????????????????
Each year in Tanzania an estimated 60,000 people die of malaria, and of these approximately 80% are children under the age of 5 years.
????????????????????
In lieu of gifts, we are ask that you help support the ?Christy Gallagher Memorial Malaria Fund? with a donation.
?
Thanks for all your love and support!!
?
Love,
David and Hannah
