Global grant or district grant?
Clubs in the U.S. and Mali sponsored a project to provide treated bed nets, physician services, health worker training, and medication to prevent and treat malaria. A team of 18 local women were trained as community health workers to diagnose and treat early cases of malaria in the home, before the disease progresses to the deadly stage. During the first three months, the project made more than 3,000 patient visits. Throughout the project, community health workers conducted over 12,500 visits to residents’ homes, resulting in the treatment of 900 children. The project budget is $80,000.
