ProbIem Statement
MaIaria, an infectious disease, caused by a pIasmodium which is
spread by the FemaIe AnopheIes Mosquitoes, causes about 3,000
chiIdren deaths each day in Africa and around 1,000,000 deaths per year.
MaIaria causes seizures, kidney faiIures, and fevers and many other
symptoms. MaIaria kiIIs red bIood ceIIs, which damages the body
tremendousIy. It affects peopIe across the worId.
Our project goaI is to raise at Ieast 25 doIIars to donate to MaIaria no
more to send maIaria tests and treatments to kids in Africa.
The Actions We Took
1. Find a non-profit corporation that accepts donations to provide help for those
affected by malaria
2. Organize when and where the fundraiser will take place
3. Decide what to sell in order to raise money to help people diagnosed with
malaria
4. Buy products to make lemonade for fundraising
5. Make lemonade, flyers, and signs to raise money for malaria
6. Donate money to the non-profit corporation, Malaria No More
7. Write a thank-you letter to Sorena Nadaf acknowledging his help

Proof of
Donation
We donated our funds to
Malaria no More. Our
funds will be used to send
tests and treatments in
the form of Artemisinin-
based Combination
Therapy.
Why We Took This Action
We chose to use Malaria No More because their website was more organised than many other
organizations with a clear explanation of where your funds would be going. We also like the idea of
our funds going to help people of a more impoverished country that would otherwise not be able to
help themselves with this issue. Each dollar that we donated went towards 1 treatment therefore our
37 dollars may have helped 37 kids get over their malaria infection. Overall our small donation helped
more than 2 classrooms full of kids in Africa.

Dear Mr. Nadaf

Thank you for your help with our take action project (T.
A.P.) We could not have done it without the table and
lemonade you provided, and also for helping us donate the
money we earned to Malaria No More. We truly appreciate it
and we're sure the kids in Africa do too.

Sincerely,
Reza, Will and Sultan
