One of the coolest aspects of going to Kenya to distribute bed nets in the refugee camps was to see our partners participate and get something out of it, too. This time around, we were with the Union for Reformed Judaism (URJ).

Of the three refugee camps in Dadaab, Dagahaley is the only one registering new arrivals. Dagahaley does not have any more space than the other camps – like Ifo and Hagadera, it is overstretched with a population of more than 85,000 on land that should be holding only 30,000.

I slept under a bed net last night. It’s not the first time I have done so, but it somehow seemed so perfect, knowing that while I was sleeping under this blue net within the UNHCR compound in Dadaab, Kenya, women and children in the Ifo Refugee Camp were doing the very same.

Boston was truly an amazing city tour. The Museum of Science allowed us to put up a bed net display in a key location in their lobby and this enabled us to speak with hundreds of very engaged people, both young and old.

For those of you who played our game Deliver the Net last year for World Malaria Day, you know the answer to this question is yes. Thousands of people across the country delivered virtual nets, and with help from a generous sponsor, we were able to send more bed nets and save lots more lives from malaria.
